AWI 40mm gaming anyone ? Updated

Once again some excellent pictures, like the idea of head swops to get more out of a figure range.

I have them, plus both British light dragoons.
They will be revisited to upgrade a few of the horses.
( I'm not in the barn till later , l will do a count up and post later)

So, these Tarleton dragoons are trident miniatures? You didnt even consider the S&S versions?

Head swaps are one way to get ahead. Ive been thinking of getting some head sets for the French,  maybe some for the Neapolitans.

I forgot to ask, did you paint those British Napoleonics?

To jump in - I have hundreds of S&S infantry - not one cavalry figure - they are all wrong , the horses are terrible , but the main thing is the rider size - the legs are 5 ml too short - the whole figure is more like 30mm - compare that to Perry or FR - and there is no comparison - Trident are also pants in my humble opinion - that’s why I have so few cavalry

I like Rob had a lot of my collection ( mainly Confederates) painted by Tony Runkee , but the British are mine

Canadians continental line
( They are generic and can be used for other units,)

[schoey]

Wonderful unit, like the uniform colours.

[MiniPigs]

Very nice. I was looking at FR's short tailed continental figures and, in particular, the head strips. I couldnt see what the smooth front, visorless helmet head looked like in profile. Do you have examples of figures using that head?

[Lysandros]

Yes l should have something , l will post tomorrow if l have.(cocktail hour. Not in barn)

I hope this is what you mean.

Yes, thank you very much.

What's the story behind the stripey trousers under the hunting shirts?
