"10mm GHQ Confederate Cavalry" Topic

Today on my blog I've got some pictures of my recently painted 10mm Confederate mounted cavalry (which I will use as the 4th Tennessee). Check them out and let me know what you think. Thanks for looking.

Well, they look good as far as I can tell. Did you ever think about putting a light in front of them? That would really help to see them better.

yes, a little too dark. shooting mini's can be challenging, especially given depth of field/exposure settings, lighting and final image size.

They just came out with charging cavalry.

Nice work, btw.

Yeah, I'll probably have to re-shoot these once my usual location is available again. The table I usually game on has much better lighting, and is higher so closer to the lights, but it is currently occupied.

I saw that, mandt2. I'm definitely looking forward to painting up a unit of those charging cavalry. The standing still/walking cavalry is kind of dull.

I've put up some new, hopefully better pictures of the unit. The lighting is definitely better in the new shots. In order to get pictures that show all the detail, I might be better off just photographing one stand at a time, instead of having the entire unit in the same picture. Then I also wouldn't have to shrink the picture as much to make it a reasonable size to put up on the blog. That might help. Maybe in the future I'll at least take a couple of pictures of just a single stand up close, in addition to the pictures of the entire unit.

Today I've updated my blog with some pictures of a Confederate Cavalry brigade command base. I attempted to paint another white horse, which I find difficult. If anyone has any good advice on painting white horses, leave a comment! I'm sure it would be helpful.
