Revived a couple of pack as a try out for these last week and all I can say is congratulations and thanks to all involved. Ordering was simple, delivery super fast and the quality in the sculpting and casting is absolutely top drawer. I have two very large ECW armies that I am happy with and didn’t plan on buying much if any more for this period but these are a must have and as intended add a lovely dash of colour and character.

Thanks Mikeland. Glad you like them  :)

Whilst eagerly awaiting the next batch of dolls and components for Release 2 to arrive from Mr. Collier, I've done a few more head swaps - just for a bit of variety in the collection :)
 
So it's head A onto body B, B onto C, and C onto A! A fairly simple task with a fine blade hacksaw, made good with a little Green Stuff around the collar and hair. (All those lustrous mid-C17th locks are a boon for the head-swapper ;))

The swordsman is a Thirty Years War character. As soon as I popped the head on the body, I could hear the theme from 'The Flashing Blade'...
I'm sure he's Spanish.
He looks Spanish.
I'm calling him Don Alonso anyway  :D










Here's the head swap brigade to date...

Very nice, Baroni Blood!
Loving all those lovely colours.
 :-* :-*

Is that fella in blue based on a certain 'galloping major' we know?
 ;)

You stay away from me with that hacksaw, you fiend!

Nice work once again! But aren’t headswaps a bit contrary to creating your own miniatures range?  ;)

With such dashing poses, you'll be asked to produce a D'Artagnan some day...  :D

And I shall have a closer look at these chaps to see if a simple conversion (a longer nose) could change one of them into Cyrano de Bergerac.  lol

I reckon I’ve already had 15 - 20 enquiries about extending the range to encompass the Three Musketeers  ::)

There is a passing resemblance isn’t there? (Entirely coincidental) ;)

Your barnet needs hedge trimmers not a hacksaw, Pablo  :D
