I was glad to be of assistance with these drummers, and I'm looking forward to seeing them in colour when released, John OB

I think you have found the maker, well done !!! Yes, the square base, the same coding for the kits, SP-*** and the way that the arms is attached is the same as my figures. No, there was no box with mine, they came in a clear plastic zip-lock bag, but the instructions confirm the identification...

I recently bought these 3 figures as castings from an intestate seller in Australia. They came with painting instructions, but they have no maker's identification on that, nor on the casting, so can anyone identify the maker? L - R SP-185 British 1st Foot Guards grenadier 1776 SP-160 General...

Yes, but that wat the majority of US voters wanted, isn't that democracy??? John

Probably only if you buy from a US shop, so stick to a local one where the postage is cheaper too !!! John

This seems to me like a Federal Govt tax on the American consumers ???

looking good :) John

Yes that keeps busy as well as the 'load of lead' you sent me year or 3 ago, but I'm slowly assembling and painting and posting them over. That will keep be busy for another couple of years so don't send any more until they are done !!!!! John

Not sure but isn't the 'Stars and Stripes' a post WW2 design ???? I do like the addition of the ruined buildings, now it looks like Italy :) John

French maker F.A.E.V. but I don't know much about them, only got them off Ebay a while back from a deceased collector in Australia. John

Robin, I'm so glad that I got to spend a morning with you late last year to see the collection, and even then, it was being reduced from the former glory. I sure hope you will still have a suitable sized room/shed for your favourites, and next time I'm over, I hope to 'inspect the troops'...

Here are a couple I have found ... and if you'd like a different French regiment, I also have a plate of an Algerian Tirailleur, shown below on the bandsman on the right. John

I have also noticed that Speira Miniatures who print 3D figures, also has a Potemkin drummer and he has wide trousers with Hessian boots! I've been getting some of thhier figures printed at 1:30, and most are quite good, easy to paint and great value too. John

Nice one, I'm looking forward to see what other figures will be coming ??? John

I like the tighter trousers and hussar boots for infantry while the wider ones for cavalry. John

Victor, here are another couple of pics of the soldiers of that time wearing the Potemkin hat, a drummer and a musketeer. John

Good to see more figures to join the battle on the Sub-Continent :) John

I found these images of that drummer of a figure made by Ukrainian maker VID, who posts here on the Forum and has a Facebook page too. Thought he could be useful to you?? John

This one looks good, so keep on posting, John

It's not a tank, its a Self-Propelled Gun ...... ARTILLERY!!! John
