Simply amazing work! If these three figures alone cannot prompt a mass purchase of Artizan Northwest Frontier figures....then you have no soul  :-*

Brilliant. They would certainly inspire me to buy that range. I wonder whether they will produce Sir Sidney Rough -Diamond ;)

I heartily second this! I think Sir Sidney and Lady Ruff-Diamond would make an excellent set! Why not Private Widdle (in uniform), Sergeant-Major McNutt (with or without the spear) and Captain Keene in another? Also Brother Belcher, Princess Jelhi and the Fakir?

I have spoken to many Wayne from WI on this and he like me would love Sid as Sir Sidney with the revolver, I think he is is bugging people so we need to keep the pressure up

For those of us not in the UK, could you reveal the background for these figures?  Very mysterious.

There is already a "Not Sid James" model out there - The Mutton Chop Sidney "Dirty Laugh" Cohen, sculpted by Paul Hicks.
Just need a suitable torso and a quick headswap...
