A classic metal figure from the eighties which I had built in my early twenties. When parts started falling off I kept it in a container for decades until I decided to rebuild. Disassembled and stripped to bare metal it was entirely redone. Special care was taken to reinforce the horses legs with brass rods as before they had buckled under the weight of the model (around 1.2kg). Roadside stone lantern is scratchbuilt.

      Thanks a million for visiting and commenting. I guess it’s inevitable with all that weight. Hopefully the rods will hold the whole thing up……
