Title: 28mm Spanish Line Cavalry - Calatrava Regiment
Post by: Brian Smaller on May 22, 2016, 05:27:49 AM

Hi all
Elite Miniatures. First of my Spanish cavalry for my 1808 Spanish Army for my French opponents to chase across the field. One of my mates told me to base them advancing to the rear. This was the best I could do.

lol I picked up some Spanish as I liked their look. I haven't painted them as they are deemed to be rubbish on the table.

I like the way yours look, and look forward to the next unit of KGL dragoons ;)

Dear Boy,
They say great minds think a like .
I like Elite , they have an old school elegance that many " pumped up " figures do
not capture .

Keep it up
Cecil

Connoisseur and Elite are my favourite ranges. Although new ranges are fantastically detailed I find they are quite wooden.
