Title: Captain Danomar - painted by Ben

I've got lots to show you before Salute, so I had best get started! You've seen this guy inked before, but not painted.
Here's the current version of the fluff for the new book, so I hope you find it interesting (this may change before the book is printed):

Danomar and the Order of Relan
Of all the knights that serve the Emperor, it is the Order of Relan that are held in highest regard. The knights are allowed to ride the rare and powerful Enuk Nobilis, which tradition states are all owned by the Emperor himself.
Early in his career the young knight Danomar proved himself in the South of the Empire, slaying the mighty Tar Kisael, a Devanu Kopa that had caused terror across the lands of Larigal.
Danomar was offered a promotion in spite of his age, but requested instead that he might join the Emperor’s own Heavy Cavalry. The gall of the request amused the Emperor and he chose to grant it.
Danomar proved himself time and again and was chosen by the Emperor to lead the forces deployed on the Delgon border. He could not bare to standby during the attacks and was the first to break his oath, leading a band of knights against the Delgon in the defence of the town of Ardel.

There is one more heavy knight to accompany him - that's currently at the casters, but I should have a few in time for Salute.

I have decided that Ben cheats.

He does not paint. He breeds 30mm high real funarnii and then gets them to pose for photographs!!!

On a downside I thought the enuk nobilis were albinos?

Nope. They are a rare breed, but they aren't all white. Danomar's mount is pretty much the same colour as the paintjob Ben did on the unbridled enuk nobilis.
Glad you like Ben's paintjob though - he has done an excellent job.

Cheers :D

Two castings of the other knight are sitting in the "to do" queue right behind another Eriali and some mountainous folk
