Hawk Miniatures produces a range of fine-scale model figure kits and bust kits designed by a modeller for the modeller to build, customise, and paint.
Hawk Miniatures model kit range represents military subjects from the British and Empire forces from many periods in history and conflicts. Such as
American War of Independence (1775 to 1783)
Napoleonic Wars and Battle of Waterloo (1803 to 1815)
Crimean War (1853 to 1856)
Victoria's Wars (1837 to 1902)
We aim to offer a truly representative range that reflects all the armed forces, whether they are from the Army, Navy or Royal Airforce, of the time and where possible Hawk Miniatures like to represent specific people to highlight their heroic endeavours, bravery awards and historical events.
Full-dress splendour of the Household Cavalry: this 75mm scale resin figure depicts an Officer of the Royal Horse Guards, circa 1825. One of Britain’s most senior and imposing regiments, the “Blues” wore a uniform rich in gold lace, plume and polished metal — a magnificent showpiece for the display cabinet. Sculpted by Alan Ball as a full figure.
The kit is a multi-part resin figure supplied unassembled and unpainted, and requires assembly. Any groundwork shown in the photographs was provided by the artist and is not included. Not suitable for children under 12.
Painting this figure
Deep blue cloth, gold bullion and gleaming helmet make a bold, high-contrast paint — our Kolinsky sable brushes hold the point for the lace and orders, while a dry brush brings up the metalwork. Browse more of our historical figure kits.
The other side of the guns: this 90mm scale figure depicts a Russian artilleryman at the Charge of the Light Brigade, Crimean War 1854. Russian subjects are far rarer than British ones, which makes this gunner — defending the battery at the end of the valley — a valuable and characterful addition to any Crimean collection. Sculpted by Alan Ball.
