I really do like Mr Hicks' sculpting of this range and I hope that he will add to the number of mounted figures. Purists may moan that the harness around the saddle is not quite correct but some greenstuff around the strap over the horse's chest would change this into a bandolier and a sharp knife can easily remove the strap that goes around the horse's tail. It is good to see some clutter on the saddle. A Woodbine Wolseley headswap will allow these figures to serve in the Middle East.
Beautiful cavalry trooper riding to victory!
ReplyDeleteHe looks wonderful Mark, I can almost hear the hooves thundering beneath him.
ReplyDeleteFabulous work. The tack is a little red for my taste, but simply lovely.
ReplyDeleteAwesome!

Great work, Mark. Looks perfect whether the saddle is precisely accurate or not!
