A Tudor Captain, 1544, contemplating his dress sense:

Lovely, the red hair is a nice touch

May I suggest a St. George cross on the chest to complete the look

Nice, lovely miniature.  8) 8)

How do they scale up with other miniatures?

There's a comparison shot with Perrys here:

I'm using them with TAG for a 1544 project - they are a little larger but not incompatible.

Stuart - you're right, and the next one I do (because that sculpt too gorgeous to have just one) will have a more ornate tunic.  For some reason the model screamed 'redhead' at me and this one I'd see as a Scottish Borderer who's family made their peace with Henry after Flodden and who's accompanying him on the 1544 fiasco.

Cheers for that, it's a shame they are £5 each
