Great work as usual, Rafa  :)

Since I believe you've painted figures from both manufacturers, do you know how the Gringo 40's figures compare with the Artizan march or Die/French Foreign Legion range size-wise ? I'd like to use the Gringo Spahis and some of the French officers alongside the Artisan minis, but I'm afraid they'll tower over them, especially the cavalry.

Ah, my mistake then. For some reason I thought I remembered seeing some Artizan French colonial figures painted by you on the now defunct Steve Dean forum but that must have been somebody else's work.
