I hate to say it, because mine are Gripping Beast but, the Crusader Byzantine castings look better. Nice paint too! |

Lovely! I like Crusader figures. Although well sculpted, the heads on Ebob horses are up so high its often hard to mount the rider without major surgery. Did you find this to be the case with your beautiful figures? |

You are getting quite good Andy! Excellent work! Big Red, I have had to trim the manes on the horses at times too. |

I never had to do surgery on mine but yes the riders do hug the mane. Skipper John-I was happy with how the gripping beast came out; however, I agree with your assessment. |

Great painting! I specially like the set on the right where the one guy is about to give a face slash to the fellow blowing the horn in his ear. |

Really nice! Very effective style that makes them pop. |
