Title: Difference between MAL 11 and Mal !2
Post by: Orcs on 20 March 2015, 10:36:18 AM
Just been sorting trough my WSS British to take away on holiday to paint. (please ignore Last Hussar sniggering in the corner)

I have a couple of WSS Army packs and they are supposed to contacin MAL 11 Cavalry with Tricorn. I also bought some dragoons, and since I bought them a while ago I have mixed them up.  Noy I can't tell them apart, They look like the same pose

does any any have pictures of  MAL 11 and MAL 12 .  

I know MAl 12 is on the website, but only one profile of it.

thanks in advance

If it is the same as the old (very old!) ones I have then I think the Dragoons should have a musket at their side, and the horse shouldn't.

IIRC one has a smaller carbine, and the other a big honking musket - otherwise they look really similar? I'll see if I can dig my WSS stuff out and have a look...
