Foundry French Foreign Legion?
« on: September 16, 2009, 01:31:54 AM »
Anyone know who sculpted this single pack of FFL?

They look like Mike Owen sculpts.

Here's a suggestion - I purchased a pack long time back and could not think of any figures suitable for command. Then I stumbled across the Renegade WW1 early war French also by Mike Owen and their command pack is perfect, two very nice officers ideal as FFL.

These are really nice figures, I found them browsing the Foundry website one night. I have built a unit of 20 up for BoB. The early French officers from Great War Miniatures range make good command for them. Also the GWM early French infantry in kepi's and coats are about to be painted up as a Legion company. I am basing them on Mike Chappel's illustrations from Windrow's excellent Legion book.

I'm planning on using them to round out a small unit for pulp games. The new Artizan FFL figures from the Thrilling Tales range are alot thinner than the WW2 FFL figs, so I figured the Foundry ones would suit better to round out a small unit commanded by the Artizan FFL characters.
