Digital Sculpts - German Officer in Heer Uniform 200730

Yes they are rather slim for work horses

Really?
As for the size of the horses, well, they varied in size and girth, but most (not all) of the WW2 war time photos I have seen show horses that are overworked and/or with malnutrition.


But is modeling warn out malnutrition horses a good thing? Depends on the gamer or modeler I guess. To appeal to a wider range I would think modeling a standard looking horse would be the good choice.
 
Rubicon Models horses look nice and taken care of, so this can be good or bad thing I guess. Overall though, I think it's a good choice because they could market these horses to a wider range of interested gamers including Napoleonic Wars, American Civil War, World War One, or really, any 28mm tabletop miniature gamer that would like to have some horses.

What I mean is that they don't ft the usual idea of a draft / farm type work horse . And yes they are very nice horses that should cross over into many game eras or dioramas .

There is a reason why these horses look like that.  They are "prototypes" for something we had been working on... might not be a product any sooner, but is definitely something we had planned.  Stay tuned!!

There is sporty and there is gaunt.

It might be more accurate, but not sure it is what people would want.

A German officer in Heer uniform - We have spent a considerable amount of time to improve our 1/56 scale figure template as well as our sculpting skills.

This figure is from one of our latest batch of miniature projects. Do you like it?




Enjoy!

I have not made up my mind about Rubicon figures.
