Due to the variety of my existing dolls, I occasionally experienced scale creep. Like my recent artillerymen. To avoid this, I decided to update and standardize my dolly selection.



So here is the new base doll for all marching poses. The doll base is thicker than before, because I constantly have problems casting the previous thin bases. The step of the figure is shorter to bring the legs closer together. The scale of the figure is 16mm, which corresponds to a 170cm tall person in 1:100 scale. When further multiplying to get special dolls and final products, scale creep increases this to 17-18mm. But no abnormal giants anymore, I hope.



Here is a comparison of the new dolls with other figures. On the left is the AB 17mm Austrian artilleryman, then my cancelled Pike and Musket dolls which were too big, then new dolls of which the one on the left is for the artillery, then some existing dolls of the new size and finally a 16mm figure from the beginning of my time.



Updates are also waiting for the cavalry. The figure on the right shows the compatibility of my second generation horses and riders.
Unfortunately, it soon became clear that the saddle cloth turned out to be too short, which had to be corrected by creating new dolls, which is demonstrated by the middle figure.
Unfortunately, the horses were of different thicknesses, so the new dolls were a bit wobbly. To correct this, I am now making the third generation horses. To start with, I made a new saddle cloth matrix, which can be seen in the figure on the left. Then I scratch my Set B horses to match this matrix. In addition, I am trying to make the horses' legs thinner.
Next I will make new dolls for the line and light cavalry from the saddle cloth matrix.

First set of 2nd Generation 1:100 horses are casted.

Next set will be with the same horses but with long tails.
Price for new horses are determined by their average weight - 1.60 EUR per horse.





Set of Guard Cossacks got horses at last, all figures are resculpted to fit with new horses and have new lances.
All figures can now purchase separately and new Black Sea Sotnya Trooper is added.
Also with new horses are now equipped Prussian Towarczys, Krakuzens and French Eclaireurs sets.





French Revolutionary line officer and 10mm horses are also moulded and casted, but not available yet.
My efforts to create special form of mould for figures with straight pikes/pontoons failed.
I can use this mould form for masters but not for production.
So for Suvorov Command set I must use my usual way of casting - with bended pikes.
