Title: Tribal Cavalry
Post by: pbjunky1 on May 20, 2017, 03:08:16 PM

Taking advantage of the really nice  Victrix Numidian cav  I did some kit bashing to produce some African tribal cavalry. Horses  and riders legs are Victrix(apart from the one metal mini) upper  bodies of riders a mix of a wide variety of bits of plastic kits from Warlord, Perry, Factory . I haven't based them on any tribe in particular but have gone for a  late C19th ' tribal influenced by colonial' look. They'll put in an appearence in our Kweeziland campaign no doubt.

They have a vaguely Basuto aesthetic.
