Hello
Ive been a bit of a lurker on this forum for a while now, never had the courage to actually post anything as I feel like a bit of a newbie so here goes.
I'm really interested in making a medieval Templar type figure, I have my actual base body for the human build sorted, though adjusting the face is going to be both scary and painful im sure :s as is finding decent chainmail *sigh*. However the thing im really really struggling with finding is a decent sized horse. I know this subject has come up many many times and i apologize for bringing it about again.
I really like the look size wise of the DML? horse it looks big huge mcbeefcake which is what I'm wanting as id love to do a Percheron Charger ( i know medieval horses were nowhere near a big as we have them today
) and id love it to be this massive imposing destrier. But finding a DML horse is a nightmare :/. Is there anything else I could use as a base? which would allow me to achieve this height? The Marx thunderbolt, though fantastic as a light horse, is just too small for what I want. I have a Marx articulated Silver, but again he just isn't big enough. I'm not averse to sculpting and resetting limbs ect, i spend most my days drawing horses so hopefully my anatomy studies should come in handy, however i know it'l be a challenge.
Any ideas?
P.S I'm a bit rubbish with forums so if iv posted this in the wrong place i apologize!!
