A place where Ancient Ancient armies can peacefully retire to... Possibly. Oh, and some pulp. A few things on 6mm SciFi tanks and stuff. And the toy soldiers. Especially the War of 1897... And now I seem to be starting on 20mm Napoleonics as well! email GarrisonMiniatures@gmail.com

I like the Philistine.
ReplyDeleteNot sure about the pose on the foot archer, looks awkward to fire twisted like that without the horse for support. I suppose cutting him at the waist, turning the body and fixing the cloak to match, would be more work than it would be worth.
Actually if you try it and consider it part of a movement rather than static poise it works quite well - the left foot and bow arm are in alignment with the back foot at right angles, the body twists quite naturally to the pose shown. The left foot itself was twisted to this pose - on the cavalry figure both feet point in the same direction. The main issue with going from a cavalry figure to infantry is that the inside of the legs are a bit flat and should really be built up.
