      At the moment there is ONE rider and THREE footsoldiers.
      In the “near” futere there will be three more riders and three more footsoldiers.
      ( I am waiting for some stuff a friend ia about to send . . . 😎 )

      So we have FOUR mounted and SIX footies . . . from the depths of Mirkwood . . .

        Sorry to interfere here, but, Master Hsf62, your concept doesn’t seem to be realistic in one aspect. Let me try to explain.
        Of course a caravan can be thought of being protected by riders and footsoldiers. But as for the attackers I think it doesn’t make much sense to rely on footsoldiers as well, as the attacker’s strategy could only be based on speed, not only for the surprise attack, but also for a swift withdrawal.
        That’s just how I see such an attack.

          Sorry, before criticizing such a minor aspect in your concept, Master Caster, I should have said that I really do like your conversions very much … though I think you know that already.
          As for numbers … so far I have 10 different figures of Haradan cavalry (including the 3 original Mithrils), not including your conversions.

            I wasn’t here for a few long seconds and what can I read…. many Haradim conversions, figures, ideas, etc…. can we see something painted soon…. from the deepest corners of Mirkwood :) I guess !!?!?! :)

              Yuo are right regarding the footsoldiers Master Ent if they would attack somewhere in the open. Good point! Well well, I guess the attack has to happen in another place then. A oasis would be a nice trap to wait for a caravan. The footsoldiers would wait at the oasis and the mounted ones would attack from the end of the caravan…..;)
              No withdrawel, no defeat, only VICTORY! 😆

              Master Estel, you are the lord of the paints! 40 in one week, I can’t even get one painted in 2 years!:mad:

                Master Caster, could these camels be off any use for your project ?

                Scale is a bit different but once mixed, recasted together with M73 camel, I guess i would become a jewel !
                Just tell me if you need any.;)

                    Wow Master Nicolai what a offer, thanks! Much appreciated, but at this point in time I can’t accept it. The guys are far from being ready for paint….:rolleyes:

                    The hurricane should hit further north. It would be better if it wouldn’t hit at all and I prey that nobody gets hurt if it hits the cities further north!

                    Master Milo, these guys look not bad at all. I’ve been searching for camel on ebay for a while now, but couldn’t find the right ones so far. Do you own these camels? If yes could you take a pic of them with a M73 next to it? We do have 2 camels in the Mithril range and if the size is to small, I rather convert the Mithril camels to what I had in mind.

                      The best thing regarding camel I’ve found so far is the following:

                      And this set up (camel with two riders) will be for sure a part of this diorama! 😎

                      I’m very much looking forward to convert the MS468 to suit this purpose!

                        Master Ent, you wrote you do have 10 – 3 = 7 converted riders. it took me a while to find the pictures again you posted. Yes, they are well done, but I don’t think you do have doubles of them or do you?

                          I do possess 2 of these camel + 1 poney. I don’t know if it is Ral partha or not. I will check and provide you some pics tonight.

                          Regarding scales, I thinks these are 28mm, not to far from mithril ones for sure.

                          And this camel with 2 riders…I am just completely astonished by its clothes painting ! I wish I have the time & skills to do such fantastic work

                              +1 Master Estel ! :lol::lol::lol:
                              I hope so, otherwise I stop thinking I can paint properly !:/:D

                              Look at the shield for instance. Just impossible in 32mm isn’t it ?

                                  ….wonderful painting job….wow…. wow… (not a dog’s wow)… I would like to buy this…… I’m 100% sure…

                                  Also if it is 32mm or 28mm figure, for this work this must be an magnificent artist !

                                    Don’t give up Master Estel, no scale given, but I believe it was at least a 80mm figure. You wouldn’t be able to paint this in a 32mm scale, otherwise I would enjoy eating a broom!:P

                                    Thanks Master shadyt, I’ll have a look! ;)

                                        Looks pretty good this ebob camel. I just would like to see it next to a M73….
                                        I might have to buy one.

                                          Master Cameosis, it was a auction on ebay not a site. So these are the only pics I have.
