These are extremely good - if I didn't have cabinets full of 2nd Generation Minifigs for this conflict, I would be sticking my hand into my pocket and pulling out my wallet already!One small point, the raised foreleg on the trooper's horse (top of this page)- that is not a natural leg position for a horse, I'm afraid (Blue Moon also have a "goose-stepping" horse, but with the other foreleg). Otherwise, the horses are excellent, which bodes well for you - the biggest downfall of new ranges, in 15mm or 25/28mm, is that the manufacturer releases lots of decent infantry, but then you either have to wait ages for the cavalry, and/or when it does appear, the horses are often a let-down and ruin the range (Blue Moon is an example of this - their horses look like they are in a Fosse dance troop!).
He's nice. Any chance of a picture of him with a coin for scale?Will you be doing pikemen with tassets, and unarmoured too?
OK as another person with a very large ECW collection, but a sucker for more figs... how do they compare size wise with Essex and old glory 15's? I have a smattering of others but my collection is mostly 20+ years old now. They look nice figs so far.For the KS I would recommend a side by side comparisons photo if possible. A bit of difference is fine though, as long as they are not too far off - like some of the xyston monsters in a couple of their ranges.
Thanks for your comments and advice, I took the pose from this picture it is just between the movement on two of them but I’m not an expert on the way horses were ridden in the period.I may yet adjust that.
The straightness of the leg itself is ok, but the leg needs to not come up quite so high - anything even close to horizontal looks like the horse is going to do itself a mischief, so maybe angle it down a little? As I said, the other horse poses look really good.
