28mm to the eye ANYTING ELSE IS NOT 28MM THAT'S THE LAW.

Make them so they fit in with the Perry size figures, Perry are roughly in the middle size/heft wise with other brands.

I voted mid 15th century as that would appeal to me the most, not because it's 'needed'.

I think the Crecy period would benefit from a COMPLETE, modern range if you know what I mean.

Claymore Castings? They are certainly getting there and the last time I spoke to them they had no plans to stop.

Like them a lot! More often than not horses are the weak spot in many ranges!

The horses look good. I'm so glad this period won. Ive been trying to build forces for this time period using all kinds of miniatures.

I might be getting a little aHEAD of myself here, but here are three of the head doll parts for the late 12th Century range. Of course they were made without the chainmail coifs because those will need to be added based on the position of the head on the knight’s body. Also this way they’ll be usable for infantrymen who might not have a coif.

I am really enjoying painting the V&V crusader range, but I have to say your previews look really good.

I would love to see some late 12th century Knight Hospitallers

or something like this:





Anyway I am looking forward to your range! The sculpting detail seems of the same level as Claymore Castings and V&V and that's great!

Thanks — those guys have surcoats and the late 12th Century was still very much dominated by a surcoatless appearance so the dollies reflect that.



The surcoat doesn’t become predominant until the 13th century. That said we will certainly make some knights in surcoats.
