Working on figures for Ney's grand cavalry charge at Waterloo and trying to make casualty figures with what I have on hand they often end up suggesting a unique pose rather than injury. I'm having the most fun since plunging back in to modelling a few years ago. Lots of swapping heads and limbs, wire and green stuff but also playing with a soldering iron and just trying whatever seems workable. Ultimately we need many thousands of casualty figures and even the poses available for sale are few so the more variety we can get the better.
Something like the starting phases: seeing which riders look best on which horses.
Dutch Red Lancers standing in the stirrups
War can be a real drag
My personal favorite; a cuirassier tending his wounded mount and carabinier getting off his fallen horse.
When cannonballs find their mark
A few more
I will add to this thread over the next few months as things progress.
Cheers,
