Re: Ops....It' s friday again...

Separate pairs of stirrups whose leathers would be provided with tiny pegs that fit into equally tiny holes in the horses' flanks could be a viable solution to the problem. Or, even simpler, the stirrup leathers could be bent at a right angle at their upper ends by the modeller himself, at any length he deemed suitable for his purposes, and put into the holes. Who prefers mounted riders could easily omit the stirrups and tamp the holes - possibly, the holes wouldn't be visible beneath the rider's legs, anyway - , and those who prefer riderless horses would be grateful for having the option to add stirrups. Hardly a lot of extra work for the sculptor, and not likely to cause noteworthy additional expenditure.

Wow and simply great! It´s again a pleasure to see the WSS-range expanding with such wonderful miniatures...

Re: Ops....It' s friday again...

Very nice figures, good looking poses, not quite sure whether the cornet is being wrapped in his own flag, also cannot see whether the troopers have slung carbines, might these be French Line cavalry??Overall very good...Most intriguing, and most satisfactory!!

Have a good weekend! :smile:

Re: Ops....It' s friday again...

I agree with all the previous comments, great sculpting Strelets team , very tempted , but don't really want to start a new period.

Re: Ops....It' s friday again...

Yet more temptation

Re: Ops....It' s friday again...

Stretlets, this is turning into the most comprehensive and best sculpted series ever. Bravo!

Re: Ops....It' s friday again...

Please...We need an "anglereverse" for the standard bearer.

Re: Ops....It' s friday again...

Dear Strelets,

It's cavalry time in the War of Spanish Succession! Plenty of them needed for that period and you are delivering in spades. Not the cuirassiers, so there are even more on the way.

Looks like more fabulous detail on the troopers in this, mainly, at rest set. I always liked the variety of horses that you provide in your cavalry sets of the past and it seems this is continuing in this era.

I'll wait, patiently, for the remaining Russian Napoleonics! Whilst Alan has lots to keep him going in the sandpit, I too have 'a few' to be going on with.

Regards, James

Re: Ops....It' s friday again...

Hello Mr. Strelets and to all,

I have looked very carefully at this set, and it seems to me that they would be the dragons of her British Majesty's Guard. Perhaps be the Blue's guards? ? ? . Moreover I guess on some characters, the tip of a gun barrel. But then again it is possible that this is a false image, a bad view. In any case, I look forward to the arrival of all these sets at the merchants.

I have a question for Mr. Strelets; Do you have an ESTIMATION of publication?

While waiting for your answer, be thanked for these dreams . . . .
