Fantastic painting! Not my subject usually but I grew up watching Zulu(I think all British bairns did) so I think a purchase is in order. Once again top notch figure and PJ.

Very true! I've just seen the pic of the full set - for some reason I didn't notice it when I looked earlier

Each figure is superb, but being an ex-Sapper Lt Chard VC is my favourite

Also, considering what some companies would charge for this sort of character set, fantastic value too.

A must-have!

Very nice sculpt and brushwork. Still the most rewarding part of this thread is to discover that there are people actually contemplating gaming with rag and bone men. I can see movement in the making, '70s sitcom characters in 28mm, of course I may be behind the times myself, if I think about it. Just about every one of Bob Murch's female sculpts looks a little like Yootha Joyce.

Wow, I missed the Michael Caine figure too. Perfect for conversions, just need a suitable figure in a trenchcoat carrying a double barreled shotgun and a bottle of whisky. Anyone fancy doing a modelling tutorial on a multi story carpark in Gateshead?

Nice mini and reflects his attitude quite well.

Cheers

Private Hook - new Empress figure form a 'Hollywood' Rorkes Drift set.

A great figure!

@Carlos - gaming with rag and bone men? I'd love to see miniature versions of Bramble & Son: Vampire Hunters,

Mine is on the way...

Thanks for the heads up

And, back on-topic, I have placed my order with Empress.
The other figures in the pack are brilliant too

Empress Miniatures' Anglo-Zulu stuff does get me very excitable and this set is no exception. The paint job on the insalubrious Hook is absolutely stunning, Keith.
