TYW Standard bearers, Horcata miniatures.
« on: 08 February 2017, 03:35:28 PM »
Three standard bearers I really enjoyed painting by Horcata in the Czech Republic. Great figures and Emil a pleasure to deal with. The two infantry bearers are from a Bohemian regiment and the cavalryman a Bavarian troop. All the flags by Flags of War, another great company to deal with. Hope you like them.

Enjoy seeing your painting of these!

Although I'd stored this company's for a future purchase, at the time there was a limited number of figures being produced, and I'd forgotten how cool they look.  Thanks for sharing!

A very nice job indeed, as everyone said.

For me, TAG and Horcata/Bohemian Troops rule the roost when it comes to TYW miniatures, especially for the early part of the war, which is the one I'm chiefly interested in. And the period is very ably supported by Flags of War when it comes to giving the boys something to wave. Any plans to add to that lovely range of yours, Iain ? More Catholic League colours (Jung Tilly, for instance) would be most welcome.

Lovely painting. I agree with Arthur's comment about TAG and Horcata/ Bohemian Troops. I just wish that someone made some really good and accurate Swedish infantry for the Gustavus period.

I also think Horcata miniature are among  the nicest of the period. It’s a pity they are not well studied as poses for wargamers, above all the pikemen.
