Ligth Cavalry WIP

We are not convinced by the scale armour on the horse. We will probably change it to an edged type like the rider's armour. We think this would be a better fit for the Sea Guard themed cavalry.

El penacho del casco podría tener mas dinamismo y veo demasiada placa pesada. Igual quitando los refuerzos en las patas y cambiando las placas de los brazos por unas muñequeras de cuero de tir con arco.

Son WIPs. Hay cosillas que no estan terminadas del todo. Y algunas veces podemos cambiar detalles.

Will these come with lances to be silver helms too?

I think we're going to do less bow poses so we can do some spears. Mounted archers I think most of them use units of 5.

Se ven magníficos. Tal vez la armadura de las patas está un poco de más para caballería ligera, pero es un detalle bastante menor.

I vote for slightly less armor on the light cavalry as well, painting horses with less barding is nice and it’ll help them stand out a bit compared to the heavy cavalry.

I think the scale armour is awesome

They Look very nice, the armour is a bit too heavy for light cavalry in my opinion. In the end it's your creative choice

Elves use ithilmar!

It is probably just me or my exposure to early D&D, but when I think of elves especially lighter troops, I see images of fine delicate chainmail. That though can be a pain to support. Elves sculpted by Tom Meier while he was with Ral Partha are exactly the image I am thinking of for example.

Maybe you could make some horses with no head armour?

I like the scale armour, seems like fish skin! For a light cavarly, fish scheme would be nice (they're fast), the edge type, like a crab, would suit more a heavy cavalry (slower but stronger).

I agree. Maybe you could try to make a sharp edge on the middle of each scale so they look more like a dragon scale instead of a fish scale. This form you can use scale mail for light units and sharp plate mail for heavy cavalry and units

The leg armour is a bit superfluous, but otherwise the model looks nice.
