Ah you guys need to read up on your King Arthur. The story of Gawain and the Green Knight. I've never read it myself, but I'm aware of it. I think there was an old king Arthur movie with Sean Connery that dealt with the Green Knight story but I can't remember the name of it. In 5th ed the green knight was a Brettonian special character with some cool rules and the model for him was just awesome. Do you happen to have that mini, G? If not, I might have to e-bay or order one from GW if they have him in the collector's range.

G has the model and I should say too that it is one of his best painted models

I have the Green Knight. Many of you may have already faced him in battle as I sometimes field him as proxi for a general or paladin. Here's a picture of my Green Knight. The movie Dr C. refers to is "The Sword of the Valiant" from 1984, starring Sir Sean Connery as the Green Knight, himself. The Green Knight is part of the Arthurian folklore, and interestingly enough, J.R.R. Tolkien, translated this poem and publish it along with other Old English poems.

Thanks, guys. At some point, this figure looked "shiny" due to the application of one layer of 'ard coat... but I didn't like it so it was fixed afterwards.
