As well as the Provincials, progress is being made on the first packs of armed settlers, here are a couple of chaps who I've very recently sculpted, and more are under way.



As usual, more pics and info can be found on the Studio page of the website.
They're intended to chiefly be used in defending settlements at short notice, but will easily mix into our planned militia packs, and I can see them popping up in all sorts of other mid 18th century adventures.  ;)

They are delightful, I especially like the chap pouring powder into the pan.

Thanks Nick, he has very quickly become a bit of a favourite of mine - looking forward to painting him - when I get the time  ;)

He looks like he is trying to do it really quickly as he is about to be charged down by an angry tomahawk wielding Huron :)

I have a similar pose in mind for a forthcoming Texian, I'll try not to copy yours too much   lol

Those civilians look like must haves! When you get around to unarmed types please don't forget Indians! That seems to be the biggest hole in the market right now. I know there is a tiny little reason for that, but I want them so profit be damned!  ;D

Thanks chaps,

Malamute - no probs  ;)

Aaron, I'll certainly be doing Indian non-combatants if I get my way.
But what was that strange term you raised..... Profit? Pof...it........no, sorry  ???

Hang on, I do remember that, from a whole different field of business though  ;)

I like the settlers, they will likely be pressed into service as smugglers :D

Ha, ha!  Love it.  All of us hobbyists are indebted to you brave souls who try to make a business out of supplying our fickle whims.  That said, I agree.  There are few Indian non-combatants out there!

Not yet HMS, mostly Provincials sharing that master mould - more on them soon.

Now, when are the first plastic figures coming out?  ;)
