They were precision troops, sent out to disrupt enemy lines and cause chaos from a safe distance before the heavy infantry ever moved in. This miniature perfectly captures just how much skill that hit-and-run tactic took. The horse is pulling up hard, rearing back on its hind legs to change direction or stop, but the rider is completely locked in. He has his bow fully drawn and aimed right past the horse's head, ignoring the wild movement underneath him to land the perfect shot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"2\"\u003eFor painters, a rearing mount is always a great canvas because it opens up the whole underside of the model. You get clear access to the heavy cloth draped under the saddle and all the intricate tack that usually gets hidden. The rider is wearing a really distinct, smooth surcoat over his standard armor, giving you plenty of wide fabric folds for shading or freehand patterns. Combined with the wide straw hat and the tense, drawn bow, you get a striking silhouette that’s going to be a lot of fun on the painting desk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003eOn the gaming table, a rearing horse naturally stands out because of the extra height. This makes the model an easy pick for a unit leader, a specialized sniper, or an elite skirmish commander. If you're playing an RPG or a historical scenario, having a character pulling off a difficult mounted shot like this instantly makes them look like a veteran who knows exactly what they're doing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eHeight (32 mm): 60 mm\u003cbr\u003eHeight (28 mm): 54 mm\u003cbr\u003eHeight (32 mm heroic): 65 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"768\" data-start=\"489\"\u003eHeights are with base.
