75, 90, 120mm horses?

[Dan Morton]

Who makes 75, 90 & 120mm horses? I've seen plenty of horses with figures but would prefer bare horses (no saddle, etc.) and in poses where they are charging or at least not standing still. For my purposes resin would work better than metal.

thanks!

all the best,
dan

Try Micheal Roberts; I know they have a 120mm bare horse...

Fabrice Eisembach makes a nice range of 90mm and 54mm white metal horses. You can see them HERE

MR Ltd actually has 2 100-120mm (depending on the figure) horses. One galloping and one rearing. Michael-robertsltd.com

I know you never mentioned 54mm but Historex are unbeatable for conversion potential. Even their stock kits alone consist of about 12 different horses. That's even before you start to mix & match the parts............
Any other scales, I'm not sure about at all.
good luck

Hey Dan
I've been searching for horses myself, Verlinden does a bare horse I & II in 120mm.
Bill Merklein is casting great 54mm horses at $25 ea., I know he has done a Galloping Cleveland Bay, Napoleons Arabian, a shying Standard bred and a walking Andalusian in his first series. Here is his contact info. Bill Merklein, 156-04 71st Avenue, Flushing, New York, NY, 11367. A review of some of his work is in Military Modelling (U.K.) Vol.34 No.6, May-June 2004.
I'm using a bare horse from the now out of production Fort Duquesne in 120mm which is very nice and worth trying to find!
Historex does nice work and they are availble from Squadron, although I have yet to find two figure painters who agree on their size (too narrow or too wide).
I've been eyeing the 2 available from MR Ltd as well, both nice peices.
Thats about all I've come up with, I'll follow this post since I would still like a few more 120mm horses.
Cheers
Mark

Thanks everybody!~

About 54mm - I don't work in that scale. Basically my eyes can't take it and I like the heft and size of 75mm - 120mm. 90mm is my favorite.

Stephen - Many thanks for your tip. Had no idea there were so many available. Unfortunate that they are at the wretched $ - Euro rates of exchange.

All the best,
Dan
