Carabiniers (2)


This is another photo I rediscovered while looking through an achive folder of photos. It was taken during The Battle of the Crossroads back in 2010 and shows my squadron of French Carabiniers in full charge.

Hinton Hunt produced two different Carabinier figures; a one-piece casting FN106 and a two-piece casting FN311. This unit utilises both figure types.

Regular followers of this blog will know that I have a bit of a soft spot for the older one-piece castings initially produced by Marcus Hinton. The two-piece models produced later are of course nicer sculpts but there's just something about the first issue figures that appeals to me.
