Rough Riders, Part the First

So instead of painting Red/B, I built some Rough Riders! :D

The pair of them. One uses Cadian legs, the other uses Catachan. They're based on some Rough Riders I saw over on the Ammobunker.

Here's the guy with Cadian legs. I used them originally as the rest of the army uses Cadian legs, so... But I'm not hugely pleased with how them came out, and in the reference pics I've seen of Canadian cavalry they don't have the same "skirting" of the jacket as the infantryman.

And here's the guy with Catachan legs. He came out a little better, but he's a little high in the saddle. The next guy will have to lose more of his groin. :unsure:

  1. Damn you and your thousands of random Warhammer bits and pieces. You could build anything you wanted out of that pile, and that makes me truly... truly jealous.

  2. Good work with these models mate, I've often wanted to convert my own Rought Riders but never got round to it.

    I'v read your blog so far and I love the back story for your Yukoni. Taking real history and spinning it into the future is a good old fashioned GW trick, so your story fits very well!

    Looking forward to seeing more soon...

  3. I already told you irl that I like these guys, but I will say it again so that it is documented.

    These guys on horseys are the best guys you've ever made, they're really well done and I like them lots. I also like horseys. <3

    Why is there a handicapped sign next to the word verification thing?
