Looking really good!

I must admit I do prefer those “old school” Perry Foundry Afghans to the more recent Perry Miniatures Afghans - somehow (and I’m really not sure how?) they have more character?

Great brushwork and nice composition on the basis. I need something like this for my (now sleeping) Gandamak 1842 project....

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks verymuch, I agree these figures have really stood the test of time, the character is all there and as you say seems to remain better than the new Perry ones.

Basing is 40mm square, glad you like the compostition I tried hard to get them irregular looking so they are bunched rather than in lines. Not that easy on small bases.
