Thirty Years War cavalry in blackened armour mounted on large, dark-coloured horses. Always a magnificent sight, and you have done these well-armoured cavalrymen full justice with a fine paint job. Well done (again)!

I am just wondering, however, whether there are any 'lighter' cavalrymen and, perhaps, dragoons in your massive C17th armies? Some Imperialist Croats perhaps? Mounted musketeers or arquebusiers? These troop types became more numerous and important as the TYW went on.
