The Pride of Gondor
KNIGHTS OF MINAS TIRITH MASTERCLASS

all, stern warriors mounted on swift steeds and bearing keen lances, the Knights of Minas Tirith are truly the pride of Gondor. When the armies of Minas Tirith go to war, it is the Knights who lead every assault, riding enemy formations into ruin and driving the few survivors before them.

Rich Curren, head of Games Workshop's US Web Team, assembled and painted this Knight of Minas Tirith. Click on any of the images below for a larger view and a list of the paints Rich used.
