Mike, Wonderful work as always, but even as I view even the early stages of the work, questions flood my mind. On top of the plywood, foam boards? If yes, how thick are the boards? Overall dimension of the Table? The size seems ideal for many applications. Plenty of room for display, but...

Garrison Cannons similar to the Cannon in 17519, but "fatter" to upgrade the gun size. The 17519 scales at 60 MM to a 12-pounder, 8.25 foot length (3.3 inches from muzzle to Base Ring, do not include the Cascable or Button). Barrel diameter at the Vent was a very good match for the 12-pounder...

I will avoid buying this horse. My initial impression of this offering is that it does not appear to be very stable and the wheels are far too tiny to be historically accurate. The wheels also lack the defining tread pattern of the real thing!!!! Besides the obvious scaling issues as...

Although I do not collect this range and I probably would pass on the release, I do love older forts and fortifications. These comment is directed at all Manufacturers, when developing fort, fortifications or earthworks, PLEASE NO VISIBLE SEAMS!!! Often the individual pieces are sculpted and...

Spent the last 10-15 minutes scanning those wonderful photos, just great fun!!! Always thought that this series was one of K&C's best. Beautiful pairing of the combatting figures and still enough room to get a nice grouping of "civilians" into the scene. Groundwork is outstanding as always...

Another potential use for the Quebec gate. These photos are from Fort Niagara (US Side). This was one of the principle French forts during the French and Indian War and served as a logistic center connecting Canada to the Ohio and Mississippi French colonies. The British captured the Fort...

Very well done scene. Figures, composition and staging are all outstanding. Blending all of those figures into such a small space while still holding to a theme and story. Much more than a collection.

Marco has a point on the overall price. My gut says it would be less than $1,000, closer to $700 - $800 or even less, but that still would trouble some buyers. I would release the figure pieces slowly over time, not at one fell swoop. I would be happy with first the canoe itself and then a...

For one of the very few times ever, I am sitting in keen anticipation of K&C releases. I am planning a totally warped use of a K&C figure, so for the next few months, the dispatch release will be near too my heart. Do not worry, I will go away if the one of the releases actually works, 50/50...

My preference is for well sculpted figures. While John's Indians have nearly always been very good, the very early rangers and early French Militia were not his best work. The later rangers are much better figures. Clearly, an updated release of French Militia would be highly welcome. As...

Holding two of the original Conte figures in my hand now and comparing (the kneeling figure and the prone figure). Your highlights and shading, particularly on the kneeling character, are a distinct improvement compared to the factory work, which in itself, is not bad. Noticed the change in...

We must have more of these: "Where's Waldo? But both Macro and Mike are mistaken on their IDs. The two figures outlined in Post 9 are early Frontline/Jenkins releases. The Indian holding the scalp is a recent JJD release. The second Conte Indian remains unidentified.

Mike, There are two Conte Indians and a Frontline British Officer. You correctly identified two of the three, the third is still out there!!!

Mark, Nope, it is a similar figure, but that figure in the photo is an original Frontline release (35th Regiment). Factory painted. I use that Frontline piece as the JJD's BoM line is acutely short of regular officers. Which reminds me that we desperately need a Thomas Gage Collectors Club...

My apologies, A few photos are near duplicates, but timer proved too short difficult to delete.

At the Battle of Monongahela, Braddock took great care as it regards flank protection. More than a 1/3 of his troops were dedicated to the task. On each flank of the advanced party under Gage, there were two large 30-man flanking parties and three smaller parties of a sergeant and 10 men (130...

My bad on the double post, feel free to remove
