16 foot and 1 mounted I think?  I'll tell the judges to ignore the officer in the middle...  ;)

I knew that someone does the account, but I thought, "this is a horseman, not a pedestrian, with a little luck, it will be validated !!!!"
If this really is a problem, I would withdraw this participation, others are in progress !!!

Too good to ignore Eric. Puts my poor Austrians and Prussians to shame.

Leon has spoken, and Leman is right, these are too good to ignore.  Good luck!  It is really good to set the bar so high this early in the competition.

Wonderful unit and individual painting. Even if you've started the painting competition off at an intimidatingly high level!

Wow, nice figures! One thing, could you tell me the size of the base? Is it 6x3cm?

Cheers
