… Cavalry


" I've not posted much of late but I'm still riding the Dixon Miniatures wave and have recently finished off a substantial amount of Confederates, including making a start on the 4th Virginia Cavalry. Horses are something I struggle to enjoy painting and I know I'm not alone on that one! Highly rewarding when completed but I run the risk of treading water a bit during the process.

Very nice work. My 4th Va. Cavalry in 15mm is nowhere near as diverse and well done.

I like them a lot, but guess I must be partial to the old school sculpting style of the bygone 1990s.

The Dixon heads are great. They have real character to them. I'd say, off with Murvihill's head for speaking such blasphemy!

The Dixon figures are indeed superb but I too feel that whilst beautifully sculpted, the heads on some are so anatomically wrong, that they distract from the quality of the product at hand.

Best wishes,
