Well I had to get back into the ECW after seeing Captain Bloods marvellous figures. So I decided on Bicornes dragoons, painted as a blue coated regiment. I tried to put a lot of variety into the colours, to make a rag tag of royalist rabble. I've ordered a flag for the bearer, still waiting for delivery. Anyway I hope you like them.

Thanks lads, glad you like them Captain. I'm waiting for another order to start my Newcastle Whitecoats. Here's a couple more photos for now.

Funnily enough I have just had the same set of figures come through - I chose the dragoons in wide brimmed hat.

My only real wish is that for people (like myself) who will not be getting loads of figures is that Bicorne did some packs of figures with random headwear - I spose its the way the moulds are configured and its not a major problem.....

The standard bearer (and possibly the drummer as well ? ) appears to be slightly smaller than the other figures : is that so or is it just an impression ?

Their being smaller would be good news as this would make them compatible with the shorter TAG miniatures also sculpted by Nick Collier.
