Title: Outpost release 28mm Dismounted cossacks and Russian artillery crew
Post by: Shipka on March 19, 2010, 01:52:19 PM

Jeff at Outpost Wargames Service has now released his dismounted Don/Ural cossacks (4 poses), Dismounted Caucasian cossacks (2 firing poses at the mo ) and a Russian artillery crew. All the figures are from Jeff`s Russo Turkish wars range but would be great for The Great Game.

I picked up several packs of the Outpost Turks (firing, reloading, kneeling firing, and a command set) at Cold Wars this year. I've already cleaned, mounted and primed them. The figs have minimal mold lines, really nice crisp detail and good personality in the faces. They're closer to true size in scale so will seem slight compared to more heroic figures. They'd fit nice alongside Parroom Station figs (only thing I've got for comparison right now).

Not only that but they have more Highwaymen on their way :-*

I've just got th emasters for an extension to the Highwaymen range - these are LOVELY (says he in a completely unbiased way!). We've done a Bow Street runners set with a couple of footpads to go with them, John 'Swift Nick' Nevison and a gang of three new highwaymen. Pics of the masters will be posted at the weekend.

Outpost`s Russians and Turks fit in well with Askari and Perry Miniatures, I have  used them alongside Eureka Miniatures.
