Copplestone Gurkhas

[dominic]

Hi Grimm
I also see that my khaki might be too green.  Maybe I need to take a new pic with better lighting.  Let me try again.

I don't know about Copplestone.  He has nice figures, but his poses are all very similar.  The same is for the Sikhs and Muslim infantry.  Eureka has some nice Gurkhas in charging poses and with Kukri, but they are quite small minis.

As for the skin colour, they have lighter skin than Indians, but darker skin than Chinese.  That is why I have used brown.  But maybe my brown is also a bit too dark.

But I have a question on all Gurkha fans why copplestone make them all the same ,I mean they make all the same action !!

@ Grimm
They have all the same pose because of the Foundry School. I think he Copplestone ) cant get this out of his mind

That is so sad  :cry:
it looks that it is importent  to get the figurs to the marked vrey fast and not to make the best  he can on the figures .
pulp figures maby done it better they sold a pack of figures maby Japanese in different  poses and a unit pack withe the same figur ,so they have it for wargamers and ``adventurgamers``

 @dominic
the Gurkha on the pictur is not a nice guy I think he can do his job very good

The Nepalese I´ve seen appear to have more of a tan complexion than the bronze of the southern and Han populaces...

It's an efficiency thing. One dolly can be used to create multiple variations of the same pose in half the time. When most figure companies work under the assumption that players want "units" for wargames, it makes sense.
