John C Posted January 18 Report Posted January 18 Hello: I picked up a Japanese cavalry manual from 1912 and thought I would share some pics for those interested. The first is a layout of the cavalry soldier's kit (note the type 32 on the table). The second is one of the pics on riding position. I found it interesting that the artist took some artistic license (licence in UK and Oz) with the horse's eyes. John C. 4 1 Quote
CaptainKevo Posted January 18 Report Posted January 18 Interesting. It appears as if the whole of the horses head was redrawn. What would be the reason for that? Quote
Scogg Posted January 18 Report Posted January 18 Maybe the horse who modeled for the artist was just really tired I’ve always found the cavalry stuff particularly cool. Thank you for sharing. Is the backside of page one the tack and saddle diagram? Quote
