Don't misunderstand me; I think the CS figures are beautifully crafted...wonderful dynamic poses, excellent painting and detailing, but with that much attention to creating up-market collector pieces, I would think a bit more care would be taken with historical accuracy. After all, the collectors who can afford these figures will know the period, uniforms and accoutrements well. There is already a thread on the cuirassier trumpeter, so I won't beat a dead Euro-nag, but something so basic as the 28th Reg shakos? The 28th was one of the few units at Waterloo still wearing the stovepipe design, not the Belgic shako. tsk tsk.
I love your designs guys, but please, we need them right...otherwise, we look down at our diorama, hands on hips, shaking our heads, thinking..."gosh, they are pretty, but my diorama is just not right!"
