Very cool!

This is a niche in VSF worth filling. Other cavalry types would be nice as well.

Well there be more than just cavalry?

Possible dismounted versions, full details will be released soon. Infantry seems to be better covered so I will mainly stick with mounted figures and dismounted versions. I have however more ideas than cash at the moment so will need to work in stages.

Post by: Ray Rivers on February 13, 2016, 01:31:59 PM
True enough, there are loads of infantry minis from other lines that can always be pressed into service.

BTW... why does the Junior Officer have 2 sword scabbards on the left side?

Personally, I would prefer just the one attached to the saddle.

Post by: Richard on February 13, 2016, 07:11:47 PM
Junior Officer will only have the one on the saddle, so I will check. I know the Senior Officer had 2 in error which has now been fixed.

Here is a 1st look at the heavy horse that will be used for the farriers, Kettle drummers, machine gunners and possible others depending on how well the project does.

Love the new mounts and troopers are rather keen, but isn't it damnably difficult to mount without stirrups?  ???

Or do the steam mounts simply kneel like camels?  ;D

Ah left front legs folds back and up to form a step to get on and a clip on the inside of the boots attaches to the horse for riding. Or of course the stirrup is missing but I like your camel option, oh which one is it? :-X

Heavy Horse more or less finished this will be used for a Farrier, Kettle Drummer and various members of the Machine Gun grew. If the project does well it will also be used for Artillery with a twist, all riders are inter-changeable with both standard and heavy horse as we have kept the saddle the same.

The machine gun unit is very much a work in progress as only the machine gunner has been started and needs some alterations.

Remember they is no risk in pledging early, as if we don't reach our goal you will not be charged any money. By pledging early you give others confidence in the project and we are more likely to reach the stretch goals you may want. You can always cancel your pledges later if we do not reach the stretch goal you want.

I have posted a video of a WIP of the Private for the ladies unit here: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBplam9pOwvGPfJ3LBcaKIg (http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBplam9pOwvGPfJ3LBcaKIg) or here:http://www.facebook.com/coppermineminiatures (http://www.facebook.com/coppermineminiatures) and you can pledge here:http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/926673037/cog-division-of-the-household-cavalry-28mm-vsf-min (http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/926673037/cog-division-of-the-household-cavalry-28mm-vsf-min) She has a gun that fires sand, gravel, lead shot or anything small put in the hopper on the side of the horse. The material is then sucked into the unit on her back and fired, this is all magically powered from the horse. Watch out this lot will hurt!
