They look great! How dou you sculpt the riders so that they fit the horse but can be removed for casting? (They are detachable somehow I guess.)

Absolutely brilliant! Rider sculpts to match the horses!

These really do need to be made commercially available. Yes, I understand the current logistical difficulties surrounding that but some day.
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

Yes. All riders are removable. Riders fit any horse. They can even be placed on Calpe horses.

Someone makes bags and rolls together with the rider (it’s easier to cast it in metal), but I made it so that the horse separately from the rider and the rider apart from the horse have the right to exist in a completed form.

So, I take a horse and install a mannequin on it (a wire frame and some material in the pelvic and chest area), the feet must be flush with the horse's chest.

It is difficult for me to explain the sculpting process in words. If it's interesting - I can photograph each stage of modeling in the future.

If you have time, I am interested :) I use the horse then wire mannequin method, but it is still hard to sculpt the riders legs in the proper position. Maybe I also need more practice.

Hospital 1854.
Photo by Professor Pirogov.
The nurses of the Exaltation of the Cross community worked in the hospital. These were the first (one of the first) nurses in the world.
The medicines were just oil, clean rags for dressing wounds, and hot drinks.

Wow, that is really a great set! Knowing the hygienic situation in the premodern era, those clean rags surely saved several lives on their own.

My attempt to make a copy in metal!
Unfortunately, it was not possible to clearly mold the bayonet cover, flask and bag for cartridges ... BUT, I molded them separately and replaced them!!!
I like it! Metal is magic!
