I'm always put of Baccus by the horses, I really dont like my Cuirassiers being mounted on Shetland ponies.

They should look good massed together on the battlefield 8).

They do look a bit top-heavy. Reminds me of the old Mike's Models 15s of yesteryear. However, they're beautifully painted and should look good on the table.  8)

Yep - that, and that they're all the wrong size anyway  ;) :P :d

Nicely painted though  :)

The French are one of their older ranges, and due for a make over shortly.  The new British, Russian and Austrian ranges have, in my opinion, a much improved set of horses.

Still not a patch on the Adler cavalry though, those are simply the best 6mm I've ever seen.

Lovely paint job.

Don't really like Bacchus_-although some of their figures are nice.  Have seen some of their figures nicely painted on their stall at shows but think they spoil them by having such thick bases.

My friend Chad has given me some of those 3mm (yes - THREE) French cuirassiers.  Now there's a painting challenge!
