A break in the rain, long enough to varnish these - Yes the last of the Arab cavalry for the Crusades. Please no mounted troops for a while.... :-)
Salah ad-Din Yusuf ibn Ayyub - Recapturer of Jerusalem in 1187
Cast in metal from Gripping Beast it took a little but of cleaning up, but he is quite imposing and perfect for a General figure with Lion Rampant.
The last Arab cavalry. In the paint queue for a year and now complete, I think 16 units might be too many but lets see when they take to the table in the coming weeks.
Now back to the Chinese.
Very nice 🙂

DeleteLovely work Stu and well done for painting so many cavalry, something I hate doing;)!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean Steve, I need to pick something with two legs for a change :-)
DeleteNicely done I recognise that lovely figure
ReplyDeleteQuite a bit of flash but no danger of the legs bending of that solid piece :-)
