Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda

Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

For those chaps you really want Baluchis, hundreds of them. Fascinating little campaign the conquest of Scinde and the campaign that gave us the most exquisite pun in the history of warfare, Napier’s “Peccavi” sent to his superiors after the Battle of Hyderabad.*

I have had the requisite Bombay Native infantry for years but nothing to match the Armitage painting’s depiction of the Cheshires has existed to date. Been well worth the wait it seems.




*Allegedly. There is a suggestion it was invented by a contributor to Punch.

I saw the doillies. They're in a charging/running posture, yeah?

Has any more putty been added? I think this is something I need to investigate  :D

Mostly charging/attacking types, yes, though one of the chaps is kneeling :





No idea how much progress Hicks Sahib has made on those since : they're probably a fair few weeks/months away as several manufacturers who are using them are saying Griffin Moulds are very busy these days.
