New Mounted Dragoons
Posted: Wed Nov 23, 2016 12:55 pm
I was lucky enough to get my hands of some of Barry's new mounted dragoons and I thought a post of my progress might be of interest.
First I must say that the casting quality of both the horses and riders is some of the best I have seen, great detail and almost no flash, in fact only one horse out of 24 had any at all.
The horses are smaller than warfare's cavalry horses and there proportions are in my opinion perfect for large pony's/small horse breads.
They have been sculpted with individual reins, so the bulky metal under the horse head has been consigned to the waist bin, which makes the cast very elegant and shows the quality of both the sculpting and casting process.
These are also true dragoon horses, so most of them only have one horse pistol, with the space taken up with either a Axe, Spade or engineering tool.
I will do a second post about the riders.
I hope this helps
