Best Art Miniaturen pose?

The latest Art Miniaturen Dragoon figures contain one particular pose that says everything about Art Miniaturen. Someone who understands what a natural pose, in this instance of a trooper sitting on a horse, should look like. Sculpting the rider with the saddle has clear benefits in this respect. It can be frustrating trying to squeeze a rider onto a horse where there is a gap beneath the poor chap's bum that just won't close. Art M continue to lead the pack when it comes to 20mm/1/72 scale while the same could be said for AB at the 15mm/18mm scale.






These two regiments, the 1st Konigin/Queens and 3rd Lithuanian, can only really be told apart by the different standard (have arrived from Maverick Models and on the to do list) and the marginal difference in facing colours and buttons. For facing colours, Vallejo scarlet for the Lithuanians while for the 1st regiment, Vallejo carmine was used. Vallejo azure blue mixed with a little black for the coats, and plain azure blue for the highlights. Pure white for the webbing.

The 2nd Neumark Landwehr from before, at the front. (no standard)
