Horse archers finally finished....



Standard was a simple conversion of a spare archer...  replaced the right hand with a sword one from the bits box. removed the bow from the left and drilled it out to take the pole, removed the 'quiver' and strap and, lastly, the sword handle from the scabbard.

Excellent! :-*
Good choice of colours; particularly nice that certain tones are reiterated on different pieces of equipment/clothing within the unit.

Very nice Dags  8)

I'm finally working on my Footsore Arthurian / Romano-Brits now... Quite a mountain to climb.

Horse archers in sub-Roman Britain always seem a wee bit improbable to me, but they look jolly good.

Cheers.

I'll be picking up a (French) copy of the new book at Crisis so will finally know what I can and can't use ( with the aid of google translate  ;D) - what can't be used for either the Roman or Romano-Brits will get sold off....
