The alternative Imperial Guard would be Grymn:

...and the first Rough Rider is here:



I reckon it will be aimed at the Desert Veterans...but I haven't decided yet. The Rough Rider is still WIP in the pic but has almost been finished. The rider now has a beret and a few details have been added...more pix will follow, including a heavy weapon version .

I like it. I've never seen these figures before.

Now, are they smaller figures, or did you put them on 40mm bases?

They are Grymn from:

The riding beast is from the Twilight range on the same site.

They are Space Dwarfs and are around 22mm tall. In the army pic, the Ogryn are also from the same range; they are OGrymn and are larger versions of their smaller brothers and sisters.

The base that the cavalry mini is on is a 30mm base from:

The first one is finished:



I'll try bending the legs a bit on the next one...but in the mean time, I've started on the heavy version (it is still VERY WIP):

Nice work..

I wonder if you sent a message to Kev, if he would inculde some grymm rider legs in a futre release of updates?

Wow, those are great. The mounts have that 70's Ralph Bakshi feel. And it would be really cool if some rider legs could be put into the range. It must be cool to run a mini company and see customers running with your ideas and returning cool things to the range.

Cheers .

Here's a scale pic of a Grymn against a Cadian plastic (and a Vulkan battlesuit and Grizzly PA suit):



As you can see, they are quite small .
