Group Of Knights Riding In Formation Coloring Page

Three horses walk abreast toward you, filling the middle band of the page, with one rider on each. The helmets are plain domes with a dark slot across the eyes and a band around the brow. The knight in the center carries a long lance with a pennant streaming from just below the head. Every horse is drawn with a broad friendly face, large round nostrils and a patterned cloth beneath the saddle. A single line marks the ground and a few tufts of grass break it. The top third of the sheet is left as open sky.

Three riders in matching kit make this a good sheet for working out a color scheme. Give each knight a different surcoat and keep the horses close in tone, or do the reverse. Either reads as deliberate.

Watch the pennant. Left pale against a filled sky it carries the whole top half of the drawing.

Riding knee to knee in a line took constant practice, because horses dislike being crowded and will drift apart on their own. A formation that held together was the mark of a household that trained together all year.
