Hi all anyone know who would have made this somewhat modern glossy?

Cheers,

My first thought is that it could be a Tradition kit, and that it could be an Alan Caton sculpt, but I'd have to look at my catalogs to be sure. The base looks like one of the styles of base Tradition includes with its mounted kits, and which Caton produced, I believe. Could also be from one of the other British makers, like Tommy Atkins, Fusilier, etc. I'm sure some of the other Treefrog Irregulars will recognize it right off.

Prosit!

you are half correct about the sculptor.... being Alan Caton, but the maker is Alexanders Toy Soldiers, ATS from UK

Its a Light Dragoon Trumpeter Code No BNPC001

Looks like Nik has painted your figure as a different regiment, but sure looks like him.

Check out Nik's website here : http://www.ats-uk.net/

He has loads of figures, especially Napoleonic and also an extensive Crimean War and English Civil War range.

All are available as painted in gloss or matte, and castings, so you will see a lot of them on my website

I've met up with Nik at his home/factory in London on one of my visits to UK, and he was a very obliging host by showing me around his workshop, and even casting some figures for me, as they were not in stock.
