...I have also delivered 16 Zulus for them as well.

Just out of curiousity...how long did it take you to do that many? What is your average sculpting time for a single figure?

Based on the number of Paul Hicks sculpts coming onto the market these days, I'd about 4 minutes. Either that or he has a cloning machine somewhere.... :D

Yeah, you just know some Irish RSM would have gone "Yerrah, take it handy lads, there's only sixteen of 'em and there's six of us. Wait'll there's a few thousand of 'em and we'll make it a fair fight".  ;)

The Zulus took about two weeks to do. I average 1-2 figures a day.

With the standard of the result that seems quick.

I look forward to painting a few of these.

I just noticed that the background image in the header for Empress Miniatures is the mountain at Isandlwana.  Very cool!  8)

Really looking forward to seeing the Zulus. :) Not to mention the NNC, The NNH, NMP and Natal carbineers. ;D I guess these will be a while off, but still can't wait! >:D

Well - I'v seen the Zulu greens so they can't be that far off. I'll try to persuade someone to get some pictures up.

I'm probably telling you all something that you already know but Empress Miniatures is now open for business.

Now where did I put my wallet?  :-*
