Ahhh, the pride of my Roman standards! ;D
He is quite simple to make actually!!!
All you need is a Roman klicky...
A whip...
And a lance guard...
Connect the whip and lance guard...
Tuck the "horn" into the klickie's belt...
And hold the top of it in his hand...
And there's your Cornu!

I hope that was helpful.




Helpful? Are you joking, WoT?

Helpful? That's pure genius, my friend ...  :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow:

Without a doubt, that is the most ingenious Playmobil custom conversion that I have ever seen. Absolutely, brilliant !!! ...  :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

It's so easy that I wonder why we all didn't think of it.

You are a very clever fellow, WoT!

Please post your great graphics and instructions over at GW-PC!

Thanks and all the best,
Richard

Wow! :o
I did not know everyone would like my Cornu so much! ;D
If I had known I'd get such a great responce from him I would have posted him instead of my Cataphracts! 8} :lol:
Thank you everyone for your very kind words!

I am going to post this on Garden Wargaming right now Richard!
I didn't post it there earlier because I thought noone would really care. :lol:
Thank you all so much, you have really made my day!

Here is my cataphract.  If and when I get my PM USA DS order, I'll replace his black bridle and reins with the silver armored crinet from the new Dragon Knight sets.

Here are a couple more photos of him.  First, he is with a less, but still heavily, armored infantryman.  Second, he is with his king and queen, along with their standard bearer and signaler.

The wall is not Playmobil. ;)  It's from Schleich, a German company (but made in PRC! :shhhh: ).  I wanted a castle for my Egyptians/North Africans/Arabians and it works.
