I did enjoy painting these, the black horses in particular, but it’s frustrating when you have to stop and start because of lack of time. The uniforms are understated considering this is a Guard unit but then the Guard infantry uniforms are as well. I have sufficient DK one-piece castings to eventually make up a full 12-figure unit but for the time being they will be brigaded with my Guard Polish Lancers.
Just for the record the figures are all vintage Hinton Hunt ones. The rider is FN/300 Horse Grenadier Guard mounted on horse FNH/2.

These guys are lovely Ian!
Splendid, warlike and dashing!
They certainly look the part Ian!
Thanks chaps! The photos aren't particularly good (must get a better camera one day) but they look quite imposing in the flesh.
Very nice, should bolster the guard cavalry
