Have this scene in my head for years

Hi Guys
Do you reckon I could get away with the horse in i think 1/32 scale from the master box set to go with these other figures in 54m or can you suggest another option for the horse but with the same pose .
Any suggestion it means me going back to smaller scale but I have a scene all done in my head and I love the film
Cheers Chris

Not sure but I think the horse might be a little bit small for the figures.
Great film though.

Chris I have to tell you there's no way you can marry the Master Box 35th horse with a 54mm figure . I have both the Master box kit Indian Scout and the Andrea Captain Nathan Brittles and it would look like John Wayne on a Shetland Pony . Your best option would be to try and find an old Airfix 54 m Hussar kit or an old Historex horses kit in the same pose and bulk it out a bit .
This is my all time favourite film I have it on DVD , Video Tape and saved on my computer so I can watch any time I feel the need to watch a real movie ,this is probably John Wayne's best ever film

Hi Chippy cheers mate , i will have to check out some horses in that scale i now there are some out there ,lolits one of my all time favourite films to, I was lucky enough to visit the trading post at Monument Valley where The Officer quarters of Brittles was filmed obviously the metal roof let it down and the chiming vent but yo really could capture the moment .I pick up a replica hat off the Internet a few years ago very distinctive and formed a very particular way on the crown
It's a lot lighter in the flesh

try bm miniatures, they do a lot of 7th cavalry 54mm, they did have a 3 horse set but seem to be out of stock.

Great idea. I confirm that the very nice Masterbox scene is much closer to 1/35 and wil not match with Cpt. Brittles but what about this model from Romeo?


Cheers, Martin
