I like the mounted figure the best. The rest are nicely sculped, though the anatomy on the Spanish infantryman is a little exaggerated.~Gary

Maybe it's just the poses or photos or something, but all three of the infantrymen look (to my feeble eyes) like their necks are too long. The Spanish infantryman looks long-waisted, but (again, just my opinion) not too much. I like the idea that the trumpeter can be constructed / painted four ways. Good idea.

All the best,
Dan

I also beleive that their neck is quite long. Regarding the Spanish soldier and knowing Latorres style, i'm not surprised that his anatomy is different from what we have used to see.

I have to agree with you Dan. I like the Prussians though. It goes without saying that the mounted figure is the best of the bunch.

Love the mounted fixture and I can work with most of the Latorre anatomical nuances. But, that is one funky lookin' rabbit tho and that is a major turn off for me... :lol: May be it's the pic...

The necks look long, but then again the heads look a bit narrow if not small. As for the Spanish infantryman, there was some discussion about him on another thread. Anyway those Spanards must've kicked some butt with those percussion rifles in 1813!~Gary
