The first of 2 squadrons of the Hohenlohe-Ingelfingen Regiment.  More white uniforms.  =) These are very nice castings, but I wish there were a variety of poses in the pack like many of the other types of cavalry they do.  I've tried to add what variation I can with the horse color and staggering their placement on the bases a little.



Command stand- standard yet to come.

These are fun to paint and make a nice break from the battalions of infantry I've been doing.

The slight difference in positions on the base combined with the varied horse colour works really well IMHO.

They look really good.

The variation in positioning and horse colours masks the single pose well.

Those are great! They look the part and I love the standard bearer! Once those are on a table, no one will ever know.
(At least they are not 1866 Saxon Reiters with can-can-ing horses, my one and only complaint about and Pendraken figure so far)!

Very nice. What base size are these? I am struggling with choosing the right base size for my cavalry.

My cav bases are 1.25" wide by 1" deep. Makes for a nice dense unit.

Many thanks. "Dense" is the look I am after. I tried 4 figures on a 3 cm base, but that was too tight. Looks like the few additional millimeters you get from a 1.25" base does the trick. Will have to think if I can face using imperial metrics.

Excellent, Sam. I particularly like the basing.  :-bd
