The Conquistadores - Mounted conquistador with spear

The conquistadores invaded the New World under the guise of spreading the Catholic faith. In reality, they were a bunch of irregular adventurers, with a thirst for gold. They were the first to introduce horses to the native people, which were, at first, believed to be a fusion of man and beast.

This gorgeous model is a prepainted 60mm figure from John Jenkins designs and the amount of detail and quality of the paint is amazing. This is rapidly growing to be one of my favourite ranges.
