5th Dragoon Guards: Balaklava Heavy Brigade
« on: March 23, 2018, 09:31:30 PM »
I know there aren't many of us but for those interested in the Crimean War and more particularly the battle of Balaklava (or Balaclava) please find the following https://balaclavabuild.blogspot.com/2018/03/5th-dragoon-guards-great-war-miniatures.html to my blog for the latest effort - my 5th Dragoon Guards by Great War Miniatures.

Warning: I am totally digging these figures and reckon them to be among the best cavalry miniatures available.

What a lovely painting style, I really like the dampened down vibrancy, cleverly done.

Well done!
And the glorious general led the advance
With a glorious swish of his sword and his lance
And a glorious clank of his tin-plated pants. - Dr. Seuss

Thanks for the kind words. This Easter I'm aiming to complete the Inniskilling. They are just such lovely figures. I hear that there has been an issue with lost molds which I hope is rectified soon.
