Is your artillery park all Perry miniatures?  I like the look of them, but I just spent half an hour cleaning flash from 4 crewmen, and looking at the piece itself I can see I have a LOT of work ahead of me before it's ready to paint.  So I'm kind of interested in possible alternatives....

Aphillathehun - yes all the crews are Perry figures (couple of plastics in there and some conversions).
If any more castings are real horrors, I'd suggest dropping the Perrys an email - they'll want to know for their own 'quality control' and may well offer you replacements.

A few more snaps done - a few Swiss have crept into these!  I have taken more and will be adding these to my blog very soon.
Thanks for the kind comments.

Those are great. They remind me so much of the Perry book.

I think the last one with all the pike shafts in the background is my favourite. But its pretty close with several of the others.
