Still working on the cavalry, here's some favourites from the latest batch.

This one I feel is simple but effective....


This one uses a metal head hacked off from a Foundry crossbowman....


I want to try my hand at some different horse colours, so I gave this chap a nice palomino.

So I guess it's about time to put them all together for a group shot.
I've now got enough for two heavy cavalry units, 16 strong each.









Some close-ups...





And what happens when you put both units together?









This is far from it for the cavalry. I'll keep doing more, enough to make these units bigger, or start another unit or two.... I've also got some light cavalry on the go, which will be growing in number. All these are individually based, and I've got loads of different sized movement trays, so they can be arranged into any sort of units I want. And I've got other flags and banners so they can be 're-aligned' for each game!

Thanks Stuart, neatness is what it's all about for me!!! I'm not actually a very neat painter in close-up, but going for an overall neat look of a finished unit is something I put effort into - both in terms of model choice and posing, and painting (choosing which parts of the models to put more time and effort into, i.e. the faces, and what parts to keep simple, i.e. all the shoes, belts and straps being just the same shade of brown with the same wash).

Glad you all like them!

Brilliant work as ever Charlie! They look fantastic when they're all grouped together too.

These are great! I really like the metallics, the faces and the horses. And yes that miscasted one turned out to be the best character.
