They will be suitable for Sedgemoor Stuart

Barry, will the "less" well dressed types be also suitable for 1685 or will you be doing specific types for Sedgemoor??

Clibanarium and I had a long discussion this week about the future. We agreed to keep options open but are both quite excited about a less well clothed and armed range of figures to represent the Jaocibite and Williamite recruits in Ireland. The supernumary types that you mention Juan have always been a favourite of mine as you are able to tell a story with them. I will attempt to make this range as comprehensive as possible without breaking the bank. As I have said before, it is all dependant on sales 8)

Tim, it is better to reglue a standard to the hand that all the model to the horse... :D

The group of Officers writting and sending orders has solved my problem of selecting my range of models for this Period. It is great, and a good idea from you; not all must be combatants (Have you planned looters, sappers working, camp followers...?).

Cheers,

Juan

We'll have a look at that but it may be a little too late to close the hand totally. Location point sounds interesting, I have suffered with those problems over the years myself.


Embarrassing story which I am not afraid to tell... when I bought my very first metal cavalryman from Foundry probably 25 years ago I had no idea how to fit him on the horse as he had a metal bar running between both of his feet and wouldn't go on the horse... :shock: I had no idea this was a runner from the casting process and that you had to do ANY work with a metal figure before you used it :oops:

Oh how I have learned :roll:

And the missing word was 'LOCATION POINT'
Ten points if you spotted it....

Absolutely right. The days of cast lances are well gone. May I please also suggest that the 'open' hand for the standard be in fact 'closed' and thereby enable a - to be subsequently drilled out for even greater security. I hate having to reglue and then repaint figures when the standard gets knocked out of an 'open' hand.

The horses are Ebob's, Bill from Musketeer uses them too.

Barry these are great sculpts, quite dynamic and certainly full of character.

The horses are brilliant too, remind of Bill T from Musketeer.

Most of the preordered codes 1-9 will go out Monday coming. We have now sorted and bagged! :D

These new additions look great, let them coming

That second picture with the mounted officer waving his hat is just exquisite. As soon as my eBay sales are done I can see an order on it's way for my first regiments...

Wonderful! I hope Clib sculpts a lance for the standard bearer. This would make the command set perfect. It would be much better for this great figure to be seen carrying a standard on a lance rather than on piece of wire. Either way, though, I will be buying them.

Jim, they are even better in the flesh.
