Any plan to issue some camel mounted ones and some command ?
Yes & Yes
I already have kneeling camels (just about to be released), will post here....
Then the plans are for a Command (mounted & dismounted version), another pack of foot & a mounted pack.

a prone pack will be a dream ...
i'm looking for models who can be converted to produce this gun :
(http://i39.servimg.com/u/f39/11/63/95/43/326_0010.jpg)
from what i have seen, the meharists will fit ( in size ) with the perry miniatures WW2 desert range , and will be perfect for early war Free French in Tchad "groupe nomades" , both camel mounted and motorized units :D ( even if i have some head swap to don on command group ;) ) you're a god , sir ! :-*
may be, they will fit, with some work , as italian Lybian meharists too ...
-
Unfeasibly, the figures you are releasing are looking great. I hadn't been aware of the new releases. Thanks for the update!
-
a prone pack will be a dream ...
i agree with you ...prone and kneeling guys are the most natural pose for skirmishing behind dunes
may be, they will fit, with some work , as italian Lybian meharists too ...
They could do the job quite well...minor conversion work for pouches ...the version that could be obtained from those French Méhariste would be Sahariani troops in long jellabah type attire..that's before the widespread of Sahariana jacket (Koufra WW2) ...acceptable from reconquest of Lybia up to about 1930

They really are a great looking range and size wise would mix very well with Perry miniatures, although there are differences in sculpting style.
I really enjoyed checking out the painted examples of the mini's at Partizan, especially the one's painted by Steve Dean which were really lovely :-*
Could you mix them with the Sudan range of Mahdists I wonder?
Or Brits?

(Obviously not fighting together but against one another!)
