28mm WW2 German Cavalry

I purchased a 28mm WW2 German Cavalry unit at the Carronade Show and just got round to painting them. They are labelled up as Eastern Front - but I did not want to go all "white camo winter" on them. So I did a no gloves and oakleaf camo pattern instead. I also wanted a more generic for the base with no snow. I did consider a clear base... but was too impatient to wait for their postal delay. LOL.


I have not painted horses for a while. I thought I would try out a white base with a brown wash on them and just repeated the wash until I thought it was dark enough.

I like the look of the models (Mardav minatures).  The models are 3d resin prints. There was very little clean up.

The horses came out ok.

MMM I can just imagine a game with 30ish of these guys on horseback facing off to Russian Cossacks.

Its a thought... But really nice models. Easy to work with.
