I'm not normally a fan of OG's poses, but you've really brought the character out in these.
Very nice!

Excellent.  Always regretted that OG only did big bags.

OG are a good value for money and their colonial range is quite good..unfortunately postage from USA it s a real killer and if you make simulation for an order you ll discover that postage solutions to Europe proposed by OG are even more expensive than average fee from USA..OG UK doesn’t help because what you could save on postage will be spoiled by the higher price of the miniature s packs ...
Said that your minis are very nice painted  ..from kullahs and red facings you probably had wanted to depict the foot guides of the Frontier Force?

They look great!

Some people, you including, are able to bring these rather poor OG figures to a more than decent standard 8)

These miniatures are extremely well painted. The khaki shade for the uniforms is perfect.

Calimero, why do you say the Old Glory figures are "poor". Or are you just living up to your namesake? :)
