They look fantastic. I'm going to have to get some of them.
Just one question (and I don't have any real depth of knowledge in this area, so please bear with me) but why don't the musketeers have stands?

Thanks all :)

Just one question (and I don't have any real depth of knowledge in this area, so please bear with me) but why don't the musketeers have stands?

Apparently, although musket rests were used extensively in the early part of the ECW, and in the earlier phases of the TYW in Europe, by the time the ECW was in full swing, they were dropping out of fashion. I don't know why to be honest. I guess muskets had become a bit lighter, or techniques improved?

I was planning on doing a separate sprue of musket rests for these chaps, but they'd be pretty fine and fiddly to cast, so I decided against it in the end. Not sure they'd have paid back the cost to have them made and moulded.

Now those look good! Mind you, I haven't even begun to put paint to the last Bloody order I made, so no extra shiny for me anytime soon!

Lovely looking figures.
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo

If anyone should want musket rests to go with these figures, I know that TAG does sell them separately, although they may be a bit short (TAG infantry are, generally, a bit shorter than the Bloody infantry).
