Horses and other mounts are essential for miniatures and wargaming. Whether you play Napoleonics, American Civil War games, Age of Sigmar, Warhammer 40,000, Black Powder or paint scale model dioramas, Horses will be a constant feature in your work. They are also common across all model scales! From 6mm to Epic 15mm to 28mm, you will find horses in miniature. Despite this though, many people struggle with model horses, because they use products and skills that are not common to other figures. Beyond this, they just are not as fun to paint as the riders! In this video, I show a fast and easy speed painting method to prepare your mounts quickly so you can get your cavalry on the game table, or in your model spread.

Great tutorial. Thanks for mentioning to keep the rider and horse separate until they are ready to go together. I am using the brush, so I thank you for mentioning the dry brushing despite it being easier to paint using an airbrush.

Glad it was helpful!

Most British Cavalry horses are black or dark bay except for Officers mounts and of course the Royal Scots Greys .

Thanks I appreciate that!

Interesting , I'm use to painting inside to out , this is the opposite . ( inside to out = eyes and small features 1st , but I don't use a air brush either ) Perfect timing for me finding your video , I was gifted 30 WH40K rough riders

I am glad you liked it. Generally miniature painting styles go darkest to lightest starting with larger colour blocks with fine details at the end. But all of this is a hang over from colour modulation and acrylic layer techniques. There are really as many proper ways as there are people who paint.working largest to smallest though minimizes mixing mid tones more than once or touch ups at the end so is a strong method for war gaming styles…especially when working with batches.

thanks, i really needed this. Horses are hard to paint

@MiniatureLandscapeHobbies Год назад

Your welcome. I agree horses are not easy.

@southpaw5483 Год назад

Hello, thank you for the content and sharing; I noticed you had on the desktop a couple bottles of "AMMO Shaders"; Have you used these as brush-on? Do they go into the nooks and crannies or just to shade flat areas? I was thinking to try them, but have not as yet.

@MiniatureLandscapeHobbies Год назад

I am very new to Ammo shaders. They were sent to me to review from a sponsor. I have used them on some preliminary jobs and they are awesome. (But only as an airbrush product.) In the fairly near future I will take a more thorough look at them in a video.

Is there anything you recommend to do differently in 15mm?

@MiniatureLandscapeHobbies Год назад

Good question. I have only briefly looked at 15mm cavalry (though I have some for Flames of War on my desk).... Generally though I would do the same steps but drop the airbrush mid tone and go to the dry brush layer. Smaller models need more extreme contrast. I would also take the top highlight a few shades lighter. This however is my hunch only from what I know from 15mm infantry and vehicles. Until I am satisfied I have painted enough 15mm horses to a decent quality, I can not be 100% sure I am barking up the right tree.

@chrisrobinson196 Год назад

@@MiniatureLandscapeHobbies Thanks, that's along the lines of what I was thinking, lighter colours and maybe one less step. Look forward to seeing where you land after getting through some.

@gabrielnguyen5580 Год назад

for 1/72 figures how do you base these dudes

@MiniatureLandscapeHobbies Год назад

I use the rubbing alcohol method. Check the video out in my videos list.

@gabrielnguyen5580 Год назад

Whats mid tone?

@MiniatureLandscapeHobbies 4 месяца назад

Hi Mark. Mid tones are the paint layers that come after the base colour and before the highlights. This video explains it. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qBSPTGdBYA8.htmlsi=nCmmLYVxruBzYD2f
