1st Regiment of Horse.

1st Regiment of Horse.

 

Awhile ago I had a massive casting session of cavalry figures and I finished off my French cavalry unit , I also cast up the first squadron of a Allied Regiment of Horse . Having debated long on the various units I could portrait with these figures I finally decided on the British 1st Regiment of Horse or the 'Blue Horse' . This regiment later became the 4th Dragoon Guards , it missed the SYW  being stationed in Ireland - but I see no reason that this historical fact should prevent it acquiring martial glory on my table top !. I also have a paint which is just right for their facing colour ! , so we have the first figures done as you see providing a mounted vedette.
