New Civilians from Musketeer Mins
« on: 07 April 2010, 11:45:31 AM »
Here are the latest packs from Musketeer, sculpted by Paul Hicks. They are to fit in with our IWI and VBCW ranges but would work well for WW2 and Pulp adventures as well.





I'm rather taken with the battleaxe of a farm housewife in this last set lol!  :)

Hope to have them back and ready for Triples
Cheers

They are very nice indeed. The clergy looks just like a man of the cloth and the woman in pearls is almost a Bianca Castiafore.

Those are all dripping with character, but I'm especially fond of the schoolboy and man leaning on shoves. My only quibble is that the little girl's pose seems a bit off.

Nice to see some civilians for the period and very useful sets too… even though some of them look "too British" to be used as generic figures ;)
A CANADIAN local hobby store with a small selection of historical wargames miniatures (mainly from Warlords). They also have a great selection of paint and hobby accessories from Vallejo, Army painter, AK Interactive, Green Stuff World and more.; https://tistaminis.com/

Perhaps one of them is James Fox.

Very nice: at last a Nigel Molesworth!

Lovely and about time we got a good selection of civvies for that era.

No idea but they match in great with Musketeer Miniatures!!  lol

Only joking, I think they'll match up fine with most figures :)
