    Baden-Powel

    Many thanks for this picture. I appreciate the info also. It looks as if the model was made from a genuine photo. I have a complete BP uniform and wear it when I do BP presentations at Boy Scout functions. I also have a large collection of literature about him and also some of the stamps that...

    Baden-Powel

    Has anybody ever seen a model of General Baden-Powell the founder of the Boy Scout movement? Either in his military uniform like at the siege of Mafeking or at a later date when he was Chief Scout of the World? Thanks. Ian Scout.

    News Update January 27, 2025 - Jacobite Rebellion

    This banner would not have been approved by Bonnie Prince Charles the Jacobite commander-in-chief. He was after the throne of Great Britain for his father and thus he opposed Scottish independence or separation of any kind.

    Attica Miniatures

    There have been several posts under this thread that have mentioned price, some called "pricey" My own experience with Attica after three purchases is that you have to shop around at different web sites. I found the best prices for Attica were on Etsy. Ian Scout.

    Attica Miniatures

    I can only affirm that the artistic work of Ivan and crew is stunning. This year I have received three pieces from him, all bagpipers. If you can paint the lines of the tartans in the kilts and get them right you are real good. Sea my comments under the search for "bagpipers" for details of the...

    Bagpipers.

    Hello everybody especially bagpiper collectors. I have now enlarged my collection by two models. I bought them through Etsy. They were made in Kazakhstan by SilverDreamStudioArt. The two models are well made, solid metal, well painted, including the kilt which is always a test for the accuracy...

    Bagpipers.

    Simmo. What a wonderful offer. You are most kind. However I do have this model already only it is a K&C BBB009. There may be subtle differences but they are very slight. This brings up a point. I recently had a conversation with Stanley at Sagers Soldiers and he claims that K&C make models for...

    Bagpipers.

    Hi again Douglas. I checked out the contact link that you kindly provided. It looks great. However I note that they are sold unpainted. The very idea that I could paint anything that complicated is out of the question. Surely the company must realize this. They also have many other fine...

    Bagpipers.

    Buck. Many thanks for the pic of the piper. I was very interested in that I did some researching. It is a rather strange happening. It seems that delPrado and K&C have exactly the same model. The only difference is the background color of the pipe banner and the corporal stripes on the arm of...

    Bagpipers.

    Thanks for the note Douglas. You are correct about not all pipers being Scottish. The Irish Guards have a pipe band dressed in saffron color kilts and many armies from the former Brit Empire such as Pakistan, Canada and Jordan have pipers. Some years ago there was a display of pipers from the...

    Bagpipers.

    Buck. Thanks for the pic of the piper. I have one just like this but it is made by delPrado. It is of the 71st highlanders. model number on the bottom is blurred but it looks like SNP 022. The pipe banner is of a different color from yours. Mine is a pale yellow, the same color as a regular...
