Very nice figures!
I am very keen on this conflict but I only game in 10/15mm so I wouldbe looking for proxies, which may not be too difficult.  But it is a little way down my 'to do list'
I do have one of the 'Liberation' books which is great

Arequipa? So Peruvian Royalists?
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
Pede o mundo de novo

Getting a pretty sizable force of royalist built up.

unless it's a duvet, it's still going to be too high...

bandanas/headscarves aren't going to be that thick, look at other sculpts of top hats from the period, you barely see any forehead.

One friend supplied the STL, another did the printing. I just sat here and waited.
