On one hand this is really fantastically good news! On the other, I've got way too much going on so I will probably, much to my regret, have to be a bystander :(

I have still only painted up six on the IM range!  :-X Out of hundreds!

I am trying to fool myself too, Darrell! But once the Duke releases a thoroughly researched, well sculpted, and comprehensive Sikh Wars range, how long will you be able to resist the temptation? Myself: not long, indeed! :)

I'm going to get as zen as possible when viewing the range!  lol

Cheers mate, I do like the Empress Afghans, most have Bolt Action rifles so only suitable for 1900 onward but I have a few with Martini Henry's I can mix with earlier weaposn to do the late 19th century period.

Hope to post up the 16th Bengal Native Infantyr next I know Akula was keen to see the size difference between Iron Duke and Foundry and I have them mixed on the bases which might help.

You have really caught the flowing of the robes, the feel of the fabrics. It's something that I sometimes struggle with so I can appreciate just how great these are.

I look forward to it. I've got a stack of Iron Duke stuff but oddly enough no Foundry IM mini's so it will be interesting to see how they look together
