Hi,
Please may I ask for some advice. As some of you may know, all of the figures in my collection to-date are in non-combat poses - mainly standing around doing not much. Well, I've decided to depart from this with a unit of Swedish musketeers which will be in 3 ranks and firing a salvo. The front rank will be kneeling, the middle crouching and the rear standing very tall. All figures will have musket rests. For infantry units I'd normally allow a space of roughly 20mm x 20mm per figure but this looks too much for figures in this sort of unit - I think they need to be closer together. What do you do with your units please?
I'm actually planning on putting the figures on bases of 4 or 5 figures. A base of 4 will have 1 figure in the front rank, 2 in the middle and 1 in the rear while a base of 5 will have 2 in the front, 1 in the middle and 2 in the rear.
Any thoughts much appreciated.
