Great setup, well done, John

Love that van, so typical of the time and place. I think you now need 'Dad's Army' figures there too ! Good work Wayne :giggle:

Seems like your really enjoyed the trip 'down under especially Sydney. I think that both Jock and I am glad you didn't take us with on your 'adventure' to the Ink Parlour, I don't think our ladies would have appreciated that on us :) Good to see the images of the new released figures you...

Wolfgang, I did a similar sort of setup for this set of figures that I bought at the Plassenburg in Klumbach in 2017. The background image is of Klumbach in the 18c and fits in nicely with the Napoleonic era figures, French prisoners of the Prussians. John

I won the bidding for these 6 figures recently, all Tradition of London originals from an interstate seller. Good thing that he was in Australia, so post was not high, so cost me only AUS$60 (thats US$40) landed for 6 painted figures. Now the decision is 'Do I strip and repaint them to my...

Will these go with the Mongol Drummer? John

This something REALLY different, I bet he will be colourful? John

Yes, got to keep up with the latest technology, well try it out, at least! I find they are quite good for 'fill-in' figures in a diorama, and when they are lined up on the shelf, you can't see the difference in metal and resin. I'm old enough to remember when the first lot of plastic figures...

I saw an image of the master of the battering ram, a great looking piece of equipment and it will be manned with a similar looking set of men at arms. John

He'll get lonely out there, but the sapper is about to make an 'opening' for him !!! Nice case, I could make good use on that too! John

They also do French .... but note that these are pre-1812 uniform. John

This is a great little setup you have created. Yes, you do need some casualties around the scene, that makes it much more realistic, I have added some in my dioramas but using 3D printed figures, plotted at 1:30 and given a 'lick of paint'.....! These are by Speira from Sweden. John

From what I have seen the flag of the FFL should have lettering on it, much like the flags in the Napoleonic era. This flag is the Natuonal flag, not FFL, so possibly would have been carried into action? John

The only one I know is 'The Armoury of St James' on Picadilly, search their website for details, John

Yes, a great set of figures, they first of the matte NAP figures produced by K&C. I really like that they are 'on campaign' and have patched on their trews, some bare headed, and some bandaged. I hope Andy will be make more NAPs in this format, there has been too many in parade uniform while...
