Old Metal Militia: Knights Panther

"The Order of the Knights Panther is a secular order of Knights dedicated to the wholesome eradication of mutants and Chaos worshipers alike, as well as upholding the racial integrity of the Empire as a whole. Being amongst the most powerful of the Knightly Orders within the Empire, these banda of Knights are well known throughout the many different cities and imperial provinces, and are considered to be the most famous and celebrated Order within the Empire, with a history dating back to the lasting years of the Great Crusade some 2,000 years ago. From what was told, once the armies of Jaffar and the Sultans of Araby were defeated by the crusading Knights, and their cities plundered of all their belongings, the Knights of the Great Crusade brought home much plunder from the Sultans' Palaces, including gold and silver, precious gems, silks, furs, and many exotic animals the like of which had never been seen before in the Old World."

After several weeks of Blood Bowl teams painting, I'm back to fantasy. Here's my first unit of cavalry for my Empire army: the mythical Knights Panther. I was very pleased to paint them, although it took me long. I've started with the horse and then the knights.
