Yes, similar books on a similar subject, I have read them all when I had completed SHARPE.
I really enjoy historical fiction and especially the Napoleonic era and stories on both sides of the conflict.

It's Christmas morning here, sun's up, but no sketch yet from 'Santa' ???
Maybe he hasn't left the North Pole yet????
Better make it quick, he may melt if he gets here for lunch, we are forecast to get to 41C :mad:
John
Andy,
I'd love to see some more riflemen just like the ones in the TV show, and in relaxed poses like the images of those actors, so maybe that could be for next year?????
John
Andy,
Great to see the Rifles 'on campaign' and the animation really displays them better.
I now need these reinforcements on my battlefield now AND Richard Sharpe ;)
John
Maybe John was inspired by this painting for the figure....
The Buffs (3rd Regiment) defend their colours, painted by William Barnes Wollen. The engagement saw the 3rd (East Kent) Regiment of Foot (The Buffs) deployed with Lieutenant-Colonel John Colborne's 1st Brigade. They sustained heavy...
Great to see a soldier in campaign dress, patches in his trousers, boot with his toes showing, and ever watchful for the Frenchmen.
These will be a wonderful addition for collectors wanting the earlier battles on the Peninsular,
John
Yes, nice looking figures and even more to come from this regiment so you can make a 'British Square'
The regiment, 28th Foot is what is depicted in this famous painting by Lady Butler - 'Quatre Bras 1815'

These were the items that Andy was talking about in July when he was in Sydney, good to see them all now.
They will be released next year, so leave some space on your battlefields for them if you can Robin,
John
So far out of the 5 sketches, we only have one that isn't set in North America and there are no military figures!
Maybe that is where all the interest is so far, or is it the biggest collector base and so that is the $$$ for the manufacturer ????
