If you are an avid halfling fan you will know that one thing that halflings suffer from is a distinct shortage of halfling cavalry miniatures available. I view this as a distinct shame as what could be better than a hard hitting force of portly warriors charging into battle on stumpy legged pony steeds??!!! So I decided to take matters into my own hands and whip up a couple of cheeky conversions inspired by the Bretonian Questing knights. I am also on the look out for more halfling sized ponies to expand the unit so if you have any floating around unused please drop me a line.
Please feel free to check my blog for many more detailed pics of these wee fellows http://halflinghouse.blogspot.com/ (http://halflinghouse.blogspot.com/)

Hubbynz, these look great!
:-*
They look so good, it is hard to tell that they were not made this way.
Nice work, very impressive!
Are you doing a complete unit of these?
(I have a few Halfling cavalry to make myself, but they will be more than a little different to these guys. I will watching out for more, to take a few tips on what figures make the best riders. ;))

Nice work.
If you are after more ponies, have you checked out the one in the Hasslefree range?
-
Lovely conversions. The general in particular. Excellent job. The other two are great as well, though I find the Halberd/Axe blade slightly oversized - but what the heck it's fantasy :)
-
Those Folks with short legs, both Halflings & Dwarfs, deserve a ride. It's good to see you're rectifying the situation, AND WONDERFULLY at that. Keep up the FINE WORK, & keep us posted with your progress.

Fantastic conversion. If you had not said they were conversions I would have thought they were production models. :)

Lovely, absolutely wonderful work mate. 8)
I take it you have already seen the old Grenadier mounted halflings, now available through Mirliton? One heavily armoured knight and a couple of light cavalry with bows.

They also do a chariot and some bagage mules which are quite nice. (Only drawback is the horses are all the same pose.)

I have not and I' think they are delicious :P
thanks for sharing JollyBob!
Hey Hubbynz, why don't you add to your cavalry a couples of them? It would be super cool...
Even if you seem to be able to create yourself mounted halflings quite good 8)
