For your interest MHSP make some more wagons and horsedrawn equipment that few others make. Many of these are still available, but they need finding, usually on EBay but from European sellers. As they are unpainted, the castings will need a 'lick of paint', I have done with all these ...

It looks to me like a gun team produced by French maker MHSP (Miniatures Historiques de Soldats de Plomb ) they came as castings and are from the 1970's. The range was released in the 200's with recasts made in China and sold by ATLAS. Here are a couple of pics on sets I have painted, showing...

Thanks for those pictures, and for the news about the videos, I was wondering why I couldn't access the older ones. I hope we can see more pics, it's something I really enjoy, seeing I'm halfway around the world from that show! John

It's great to see some 'action' taking place with this project. Looking good :) John

He will be popular 'down under'..... and even in his homeland, the Emerald Isle .....? And I do like the troopers ... reminds me of an iconic Australian song .....'Up rode the troopers, one, two, three' I bet these will be released in July ! John

I had my 'morning stroll' down 'The Terrace' here in Perth, along with hundreds more marchers who were cheered all the way. It was, a most fitting commemoration to our fallen and serving servicemen and women. Lest We Forget, John

Brilliant work Wayne, most fitting for our day of remembrance, Lest We Forget John

Wrong terminology, these are not Guidons, which are flags. The troopers are holding Lances with Lance Pennants flying !!! John

I have been asked to paint some New Hope Design and Lasset Napoleonic figures for a local collector. As part payment he has given me these 6 figures which I gladly accepted in lieu of $$$ :) French Dromedary 1799, Hungarian Musketeer, Hungarian Grenadier, Austrian Drummer, Austrian...

Where is the Aircobra come from ???? John

i do like those figures and nicely setup for a scene from the Peninsular. Well done, John

3 1/2 years to the next election isn't it ???? John

It's interesting but the scale that I chose was 1:30, but the figures are printed from data designed by different sculptors, and not always the same size. BUT, if you look at any group of people you see different body sizes and so that can be factored into these figures. Al local collector...

Ordered direct from HK I suppose or a Canadian dealer ??? John

Just seen that Trump has placed a 34% tariff on Chinese goods coming into USA. That really puts up the cost to US consumers !!! John
