The horse and horse holder are from Warlord's plastic kits. I have some nice standing horses coming from Avanpost but I couldn't wait. I will probably use them for King Charles' command stand when I get around to making it.

Sir Hopton Command Stand
It looks like we will need quite a few different Command stands for our upcoming ECW games so I started by making a dedicated stand for Sir Ralph Hopton.
Made entirely of Warlord Games figures form their Pike and Shot Command Group 2, I utilised the officer to represent Hopton, dismounted from his horse, gesturing towards the enemy (probably should have painted the eyes...).
The ensign and the other officer (not shown) are really nice models; the faces are done better than the model I used for Hopton. The flag is also from Warlord Games.

Outstanding command vignette! What is the size of your base?
ReplyDeleteThank you JF. It's an 80 mm MDF base, probably from Sarissa Precision but I am not sure.
DeleteGreat little command piece well done.

ReplyDeleteI do like large command stands with a bit of character. Incidentally, what's up the the drummer playing the wind instrument?
It's the preferred instrument of his people... the Cornish.
DeleteI may have made that up....
Well done, a colorful and beautiful vignette!
