Got these at Salute on Saturday. The 13th Somerset Light Infantry to escort my Baggage wagons ~

I got the General Service Wagon from Redoubt, the Oxen from Dixon and the drivers from Foundry.

You've made all the purchases on my Empress wishlist so I am a little jealous. Wish they were coming to Triples and then I could get a few more packs with the p&p monies.

Looking good. I was looking at wagons in a book earlier today and wondering how to do them. Yours works wonderfully.

Keep them coming.     Svennn

Very nice. I've got to get me that sargeant. Beautiful model.

Finished the first four figure base of the 24th Foot today while you've been slacking! ;)

Now you need a Jack Hawkins figure trying to turn the wagon over single-handed...  ;)

Actually, that'd be a pretty cool figure.... ::)

Any figure based on Jack Hawkins would be uber cool ideally something from The League of Gentleman ( the real one, not the flim flam with Sean C.)

Very nice work on what appear to be very nice figures.

Oh and for those unfamilar with the flick:

Too far "Oop North!" I'd guess, for a newish company. Or perhaps they could n't get in? I wonder if they'll be at Partizan in May?

Yes, probably true. I assume they will try and consolidate a bit more in civilised lands and then expand into the wilderness  ;)

Shame they couldn't have "piggybacked" with another company, as Warlord have done with Stratagem/Wargames Illustrated. At least I'll get a box of ECW figures  :D
