Knight of St. John (Hospitaller) 13th century
Painted mostly using artists' acrylics (mail done with graphite paint) with some Vallejo alcohol-based metallics, plus some glazes of Tamiya Smoke. The patch you can just see on the back of the skirts in the inset pic is a painted illusion, as are all the fine creases on the surcoat; same with the nicks and scratches on the axe haft, leather belts and cuir boulli greaves. Normally at this period Hospitallers would be wearing red surcoats with a large, centrally-placed white cross but I imagined a senior brother wearing a much-loved example of the the older type.
