Hi :)
(http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y232/Eaglstone/the-fight-for-democracy_zps98e12907.png)
Naseby Battlefield Trust have commissioned Empress Miniatures to design and produce figures of both Cromwell and Rupert and this is the result.
Both figures come with the figure sculpted directly to the horse.
The Oliver Cromwell figure has a seperate right arm and visor which can be placed in either the open or closed position.

Prince Rupert has a seperate right arm.
(http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y232/Eaglstone/Rupert_zps77619928.jpg)
The design of the figures illustrates the different command styles of these two great cavalry commanders with Rupery at full charge leading from the front and Cromwell standing in a more solid and considered pose.
Every £1 of the sales price goes towards the Naseby Battlefield Trust in their endeavours to preserve the battlefield and our heritage.
We hope you like them and support the Naseby Battlefield Trust.
We will be at Salute on stand TA30 so come by and have a look. We recommend our customers to place pre orders so that we can ensure that we have what you want.
Regards,
Paul

Never mind Boye, my thought always falls to "wot no Fairfax?" again.
Black Tom gets airbrushed out once more by the cavalry commander.
