    What collectors want from JJD

    When the second batch of BM figures was released, no officers were included. Outside the very rare BM-03 set, there is a near absence of regular officers beyond the flag ensigns and the Halkett wounded/dying set. A few "club" or "club-like" figures to complete Monongahela would be very...

    One of the best pieces at the Chicago Show...

    Yellow Facings on the 15th. Not too dissimilar from the 28th and 44th. http://www.kronoskaf.com/syw/index.php?title=15th_Foot I am ever so pleased with my prediction concerning the regiment that John would utilize for this piece. I was correct in predicting that my prediction would be...

    One of the best pieces at the Chicago Show...

    If an existing PoA then I think we have the 28th (yellow facings), the 47th (white facings, but they were really dressed in the uniforms of the 50th/51th - the French captured their "true" 47th uniforms while in ocean transit), or the 60th (blue flacings). Because of the uniform switch, I am...

    One of the best pieces at the Chicago Show...

    Does anyone have a close up on one of the grenadiers (front view)? - looking for the cap details that will allow the regiment to be guessed at. Not knowing is so, so frustrating!!! :mad::mad::mad: Thanks

    1/30 scale Fort

    On some pieces, unwanted seams can ruin a piece and they should be hidden via a simple overlap element. On other pieces, there really isn't a problem. On these pieces, the seams do not appear to be a problem. As for myself, I have a scratched built fort, so not going to need this piece, and...

    Julie's JJD Treasure Hunt Adventure!

    Mike, Not that I am a rivet counter, but seems 24 soldiers plus 13 sailors to a barge. So 1 boat will be hold a section with 2 boats needed for a company and 3 boats for a "stuffed" company. I always prefer stuffed company.

    Julie's JJD Treasure Hunt Adventure!

    Big YES on the barge launch. First question is "What regiment the figures will be painted for?". Personally, I am hoping for the 60th as that regiment was unique in having 3 separate battalions, so elements of the 60th were nearly in every major engagement Ticonderoga, Quebec, Louisbourg...

    New Office Diorama...

    Mike, Simply wonderful composition and the close up photos are superb. Particularly like how you posed the wagoner figures ---- we could definitely use more releases of wagon drivers. The groundwork and the use of the "shrubberies" is as expected - outstanding in every way. Master Work.

    New Office Diorama...

    Mike, Simply wonderful, but falling asleep as I type and will wait until tomorrow to comment, but there is a figure which I cannot identify. Just outside the inner fort, near the gate and the Fraser's Highlanders. Right on the corner, where the wall turns. Seems to me = Black boots, black...

    War of 1812?

    I love the 1812 artillery pieces, especially the American Field Pieces. The historically accurate paint color for the French artillery pieces during the French and Indian War was probably a blue color very similar to the American blue paint of 1812 --- not red. Please see the link below...

    New Office Diorama...

    http://www.fortedwards.org/braddock/sites/cbe.htm Mike, Link to map and photos of a model for Fort Cumberland, Maryland. This is where Braddock spent several weeks organizing for the push into the "wilderness". Note the double set of walls. The "redoubt and bastion" segment of the fort was...

    New Office Diorama...

    The double wall of the fort is decidedly attractive and historically correct. Really like that feature. Looking at the updated photos has me thinking that the mounted Indians might look particularly nice. Or possibly stage the scene as a "horse stealing" raid. Notice you change the...
