"Saddle White Surrey..."

“Saddle White Surrey for the field tomorrow; Look that my staves be sound, and not too heavy.” Here is the mount for King Richard III from the "Gold Knight of Nice" kit in 1:8th scale.

Rust-oleum Bright Coat Silver was used for the armored parts. It's give a really nice finish. I chose not to black-line breaks in the armor plates as I liked the clean look.

It's a quick build with minimal parts; only the large size made handling it sometimes challenging while painting.

Here he is next to a 28mm BTD mounted figure to give a sense of scale.

Richard is up next - and although a few more parts should be a lot easier being a more manageable size. Below is a nice illustration identifying parts of the horse armor.
