Captain Blood's ECW resurrection. P.43. Cuirassiers ride!

[syrinx0]

Wow indeed. Those are beautiful. 

[DivisMal]

They really are magnificent!

[Captain Blood]

Thanks all 

[Codsticker]

Fantabulous! Your painting really shows how awesome those faces are. I already have enough cuirassier to field them 1:1 but I may have to grab some of these.

[levied troop]

Ditto - especially those faces. I keep expecting to see the gentleman in the soft hat actually breathe!

[Orctrader]

They are top notch.   

[valleyboy]

Absolutely stunning 

[Metternich]

Simply wonderful.

I have been neglecting this thread, and haven't even posted up all the Bloody Miniatures that I have produced and painted in the last year and a bit.

I have however, finally managed to paint The Warre Game's excellent set of cuirassiers...

How do they measure up alongside Bloody Miniatures?  (I assume different sculptor but I could be wrong.    )

[Paul Richardson]

Orctrader: you're right. Bloody Miniatures are sculpted by Nick Collier, the Warre Game by Paul Hicks. Bloody Miniatures hasn't yet released any horsemen, and The Warre Game hasn't yet released any infantry, so I can't be certain, I imagine, however, that Bloody Miniatures horsemen will be much bigger. Bloody Miniatures infantry are big (like Bicorne when they were first released), while The Warre Game are smaller. The Warre Game are similar to the Empress TYW riders (also by Paul Hicks) and actually match pretty well with the old Foundry TYW cuirassiers.

Thanks Paul.

Although smaller than my Bloody Miniatures, I'll try and order a set anyway.   

[Curassier]

Were there plans to have additional command figures to match the Warre Game range ?

[Paul Richardson]

Curassier: my only knowledge on this comes from The Warre's Games' Facebook page, but I understand that a further release of figures will be made in a month or so. It looks like Steve Jones, the owner of The Warre Game, has plans to produce figures going forward in a more formal way.

[Curassier]

Sounds like good news ! Thanks

[Paul Richardson]

I should have added that additional figures which might match The Warre Game riders are Perry ECW cuirassiers and Warlord Wars of Religion gendarmes. The gendarmes are also sculpted by Paul Hicks.
