Can’t say Farrier than that

Somewhere in the past I have definitely seen a 28mm figure set of a blacksmith shoeing a horse.
Any ideas? It’s driving me crazy.

The Minden one is excellent, I think I might have one somewhere.

No specific figures, but you can make up a horse-shoeing vignette using a couple of the Foundry 18th Century civilian packs (eg CIV008 Blacksmith and SYWP042 Civilians - actually a bloke on foot leading a horse and three dismounted peasants).

The Perry Napoleonic ranges have a Russian cuirassier leading his horse up to a field forge (RN 74), and FN 151 is a French field forge with a couple of light cavalrymen walking their horses. There is a British field forge (BN 64) with three workmen, but no horses being shoed.

The Minden set is CIV-005, which is just two men shoeing a horse with no saddle or tack, other than a bridle.

I have that Foundry pack to do something else.
The minden one looks good.
Maybe I imagined it .

I think Airfix did a Hawker Farrier.

Wasn't that the Fawker Farrier?
