Sculpts by Paul Hicks as usual, and the packs are available in the UK from Empress and direct from Tsuba in mainland Europe (though the figures aren't listed yet on either the Tsuba blog or the Empress website)

Post by: Arthur on 20 April 2016, 04:47:48 PM: My understanding is that it is a Tsuba model that will be sold separately from the artillery crews : all that is needed is a little patience until both the Tsuba blog and the Empress website are updated and list the new releases.

That's correct!

I'm currently waiting on the castings of these new releases. Griffin Moulds should have been quite busy in the last few weeks due to the Salute rush. ;)

Here are two photos of the Putilov master done by Ian 'Crouchie' Crouch:

Post by: ts on 20 April 2016, 07:56:15 PM: What model Putilov does that represent?
Once also Musketeer got a Putilov made, but sadly it does not seem to have gone into production?
It would be nice, if Empress could put that into production for World War I.
