Love 'em! The contrast between the armour and the spears is really eye-catching as is the use of the gold. I particularly like how the white armour gives the knight captain the imperious demeanour he should have. Very characterful.
Paint more!

I have to agree with Pyre about the white armour on the knight captain.  Very nice work, Megatron! |

A lovely cohesive force you have there Megatron! I too like the use of the white contrast for the knight captain.

I was going to comment on the captain, but it would seem a tad superfluous!  |

Thanks guys! I wish I had done all my militia white now! But i have some pans for a Enipel Honour guard that will have white armour so all's good! I painted the captain differently to distinguish his rank by the wealth of his equipment. That's why his spear is a different colour I imagine it was a gift from the Lanak made from the wood of the great tree itself. |

And so the compliments continue apace: the knight captain is wonderful! The force in general is excellent; I do like cohesive forces with a clear colour scheme. I like your choice of dark magenta for the main colour, it's not one which is often chosen. It goes well with the off-white of the knight captain too.
What colours are you using for your Grishak?

The knight captain looks good because of the way he contrasts with the red of the force - if they were all White then it wouldn't work as well.
An honour guard would work nicely in the same scheme as well. Ideally you would sculpt plumes onto their helmets...

What a great idea. First thing I thought of is the scene in the Elizabeth Taylor Cleopatra movie, when Richard Burton is Antony and he's surrounded by Octavian's cavalry, taunts them to kill him, but they refuse.  So what would a Fubarnii version of the name Antony be?  |

What a great pic! I haven't seen the film myself but I think Anthony would capture the arrogant and Nobel feel of the knights I'm also curious as to a fubarnii version of the name Anthony |

I tend to avoid 's in Fubarnii names, but that's a matter of taste. Ahnto Neh or Ahn Toneh could work...
The gold on white with red trim does fit with that image of Antony, even if the red is somewhat different.
