Not sure what else beyond that would be required? Happy to consider suggestions though.

Have you thought about maybe Irish Confederates? Outside of civilians (and artillery), I think that's the only real thing missing at the moment when it comes to the Wars of the Three Kingdoms.

Thanks Randy.

Just waiting for a restock of a couple of the most popular codes to arrive from the casters (currently two weeks and waiting ::)) and I'll get your order off to you  :)

Thank you. Yes, Irish are on the list...

I would also love some Bloody Confederates. There are some nice rank and file Confederate foot at Bicorne (https://www.bicorne.net/acatalog/Online_Catalogue_Irish_39.html) so it would be really nice to have some Bloody Mini characters to liven them up.

That's great news, I was already looking at BM for the next project ;)

It'll be great to supersede most sculptors' fascination with the weird, shapeless mass of a capotan that they always give Confederates.

Irish fashions were basically cheaper versions of Flemish and Spanish fashions but not "Madchester bucket hat" cheap!

Oh dear. Sorry to hear that. Luckily I sent this one tracked, so I can see it left the UK on 1 September. But no explanation on the Canadapost tracking site as to where it’s gone. It is, however, covered by insurance. Not that that’s any consolation to you right now! I’ll pm you the tracking number and you may be able to find out more from Canadapost at your end.

Good evening,
I would like to know if you are thinking of making a supplement to "The Flying Picquets", so that the group is more substantial.
Thank you for these pretty figurines.

Possibly.

If I look across the whole range as it now stands, out of some 40 codes, some packs are way better sellers than others.
Consistently the four packs that I sell the most of are:
- The Dismounted Troopers
- The Squire's Men
- The Moss Troopers
- The Flying Picquets
(With the fairly recently released 'The Shotte Give Fyre' coming up fast).

All of which tells me that the fire-arm armed figures are what most people are interested in!

So it's quite tempting to produce 'The Dismounted Troopers 2', 'The Flying Picquets 2' and so on - and I may well do so in due course. But there are several more original ideas for packs that I want to produce before resorting to 'more of the same but different poses' type packs. So it will be a while, I'm afraid, before I go down this path. But I'll probably take it in the end, because you gotta give the market what it wants... ;)

Thank you Richard. Canada Customs can be rather opaque; small orders they will often ignore but anything that gets well over $100CDN in value they are more likely to ding with fees.

Good evening Captain Blood, after sending my message I suspected that you were not going to answer me that you were going to release dragons in the coming weeks. But already with what has already come out I can consider doing skirmish. Then I could start changing heads, which I have not yet practiced and so the photos that you publish on Facebook make me very envious. But I admit that I am really apprehensive about doing it. I will have to start or find a charitable soul.
Thanks again for your answer.

Decisions are always a risky thing. Sometimes an old bestseller will work as part 2 of it, but also a lot of second parts are only a cheap copy. Highlander was great, Highlander 2 was only trash. So, we will see if you can create a new first part with bestseller potential. I think so, you released these range with bestsellers.
