Truly excellent paint job.  First class.

I've seen these figures, and really like them, but the few poses that are available is a bit too limiting for me.  Hopefully they will expand the range.

Little chance I guess since it's the old Grenadier range and Copplestone has his own range now. Because of the limited poses I swapped around some legs for a bit more variation. It's easy to do and especially the striding legs (of the model with the rotary cannon) look nice with other torsos as well. Other than that the possibilities are rather limited indeed, but because they all have the same design it's not a big issue if they all look the same  8)

Excellent work.  They look really nice :)

I really enjoyed painting mine, but these chaps are on another level.

Excellent. Funnily enough They are painted exactly the same as mine. I did exactly what you did with a blue undercoat to achieve a steely colour.I just havent based mine yet. :? Lovely photos too, it really shows them off well :)

Most of the time yes. Only when the castings are quite fresh (when something has been out of stock for a while for example) you get bare lead. And I agree the cleaning is done very nicely most of the time, saves a heap of work :)
