Svennn, I prefer these to your weaselmen...   ;)

(The poses are bit stiff though... Who makes them?)

Suppose thay are a little stiff but very smooth and a joy to paint. They are from Askari Miniatures.

I am going to use them for my not strictly historical BoB and I thought they added just a little dash of colour in a very khaki/drab universe

"Svenn, the fort behind is very nice too "

I think it is Hovels. I went up into my parents attic looking for something else and found it in a box. It must have been there 20 years and I did not remember it at all but it came down with me and I got it painted pdq.

I used it, disguised a little, as the back drop fro my Aztecs in Rd. 1 too.
