Victrix Ltd. Islamic Horse Archers 28 mm Scale Model Plastic Figures – Medieval Collection

Victrix Limited provides the ultimate skirmishing cavalry force for builders recreating the epochal clashes of the Crusades with this 28mm scale set of 12 modular Medieval Islamic Horse Archers. Formed as the fast-moving backbone and numerical majority of historical Muslim armies, these Warriors of Antiquity and Medieval forces are engineered in high-grade polystyrene to deliver needle-sharp textile folding and incredible anatomical fidelity. For the dedicated hobbyist, this kit offers an immersive building experience, allowing you to field a fluid, organic cavalry screen where every single rider, mount, and weapon pose can be uniquely tailored to depict veteran Eastern skirmishers.

This box is an absolute treasure trove for kitbashers and historical planners, supplying 12 horse archers distributed across six high-density frames. The sprues give you total assembly freedom, blending a massive variety of specific bow arms—including dynamic left-arm drawing positions—with arrow quivers, bow cases, and drawn swords. Because these are true multi-part plastic figures, the components swap flawlessly across the entire range, making this set the perfect tactical support element to expand your existing Islamic cavalry wings and infantry battlegroups into a museum-quality tabletop army.

Recommended Essentials

• Professional Pairing: To complete the striking historical heraldry of your faction, pair these models with LittleBigMenStudios Islamic Cavalry Transfers to easily dress the round shields with authentic patterns.
• The Mercenary Edge: Mix the Turkoman auxiliary heads heavily into specific sections to explicitly mark out distinct nomadic skirmishing units separate from your elite Seljuk core regiments.
• Speed Painting Path: Start with a Sand or Light Grey Primer to preserve the crisp details of the turbans, facial hair, and composite bows while establishing an easy base for vibrant silk robes or rich leather tack.
• Maintenance & Care: Use a Precision Hobby Knife to cleanly slice away the sprue connection gates from the inner horse legs and weapon tips before gluing to ensure perfectly balanced, gap-free model assembly.
