Bretonnians! Painting some old 6th edition Warhammer Fantasy minis to test out some brand new paint! These Bretonnian Knights of the Realm from 2004 have been revived for Warhammer The Old World, and I just got a box of new paint in the mail thats in need of testing! I want to try out a bunch of pretty colors and paint up a front line of Bretonnians for a cavalry charge. Back in my day, Bretonnia was the "enemy army" arrayed against my Greenskins, but I still like them :-)

The paint is Warpaints Fanatic from The Army Painter, which is the replacement for their original formulation of Warpaint. Disclosure, I received this paint as a free review sample ahead of release. I briefly played a role as an alpha tester on this paint.

The review so far is that Warpaints fanatic is a big step up from the original warpaint. I can confirm that the beading on the first coat is the fault of the Behr primer and not the warpaint! ;-)

Behold the Citrus Knight, Slayer of Scurvy - excellent paint job on these, Goobs

I nearly spat out my coffee when I heard Brent say that white primer can narc on you at times. It is the most unexpected but true statement of the day.

Whenever I get overly zealous about trying to achieve the best results, stressing out over perfect blends and color theory, your videos help remind me of the most important thing in this hobby: to have fun, and enjoy what you're doing, from start to finish. You radiate all the positive, chill energy that got me into this hobby in the first place, and I'm thankful for that. Also, really like your Bretonnians, they look wonderfully retro (in a good way); I love how much color Bretonnian armies (almost) always bring to the table, even if I don't collect them myself - they embody the fact that medieval times weren't all brown and yellowish-green, there was so much color all around!

It's so good to see the miniature painting community diving into Bretonnians and Tomb Kings lately! It's fantastic how these classic miniatures are getting the love they truly deserve!

This is the most love Bretonnia has gotten in years and it makes me so happy. It's so great seeing everyone painting up my favorite faction where it used to be a content desert to find anyone painting bretonnians in their videos!

Great, chill video! The number of cat snuggle-drivebys was very appreciated :)

The grass effect on the bases came out really well!

I love how you walk through your color choice process and how you approach painting such a diverse group of characters! Goobertown is a good place to be.

Citrus Knight? More like Sir Sherbert Knight. I'm all for it. Lovely video!

Love the individuality and the matt finish of the paint job.

Loved seeing the new fanatic line of paints in action. Bonus points for copious cat cameos.

I really enjoyed how good the nice simple schemes you’ve chosen look. Really tempted to give Fanatic a go as well, they look very interesting.

Bretonnian Knights and cats - two of my favourite things!

These look so good! Bretonnians are among my favourite Warhammer-armies that I didn't actively collect at the time.

this year more than most, we need your chill vibes videos!

I think the bowmen, you painted over twenty years ago, have a real charm about them.

Man I bet painting brettonia is a ton of fun. The knights are a perfect opportunity to try multiple schemes out in a single army. I’d probably do a half and half approach where half the heraldry is the same across every model to show their allegiance to a common banner. There’s loads of ways to approach that though. Cool video

You know it's gonna be a good video when a cat's in it from the first second.

OH MY GOODNESS YES! Literally the perfect combination of old World models and new paints that I was super interested in. Thanks Brent!

I always enjoy the cat cameos so much <3
