Very nice stuff. Captain Caine from Victoria Miniatures I recognise,  :)
and one figure from Lord Curr's Company
And I particularly like the figure reloading the shotgun/grenade launcher.
The pith helmet heads with goggles? Where are those from?

I assume the others are Victoria Miniatures. Look good.

Thank you, and absolutely cracking painting,  :)
I wouldn't complain if you fancied posting more pictures....

The woman is from Reaper Miniatures, the poster-figure for their Chronoscope line.

Allow me to chime in with a belated but nonetheless heartfelt Huzzah and Hoorah!
Splendid chaps who will no doubt bring Honour and Glory to the Her Majesty's M.E.F. and help keep Mars British

yours in a white wine sauce,

thanks for commenting Tas, I somehow missed these back in April - rather spiffing aren't they?

Really nicely painted.

Great details. An excellent force.  :-*

I know these are 30mm troops but how do they stack up against the usual 28s?  Noticeable? Or usable as a separate unit?  Might make a good Guards unit against other 28mm range perhaps?

Praise be, I wasn't the only benighted fool...

Tas, belated has opened my eyes, as well. In spite of being a bit jarring in place, I'm quite charmed by the lass. Bravo!

Now that I think on it, maybe I should go back and find what had our attention back in April...  lol
