Very nice, some very characterful figures there. I can see lots of uses for these outside of the F&I wars, Smugglers etc ;D

Very nice, very nice.

Now, how long between concept/design and painting?  :D

James

PS what's the ETA on the Provincials too? If i'm already ahead of the curve on the Brit Regulars, i may have to get more Provincials to make it up to you  ;)

Too long  lol - but I promise to try to move them up the chart  :)

That sounds like a good idea  :D

I was planning 3 packs of 6 for the first batch (may do more command figures and a few in full length coats etc to follow) the first 9 have been master moulded, and the other 9 are being sculpted (or will be again soon) at least started.

ETA  ??? as early as I can in 2012  ;)

More pics of these soon.

This is all fantastic stuff Lance, glad to hear about upcoming stuff!  I especially can't wait to get my hands on some more Huron, war clubs just makes them more appealing!  It seems there's lots of English stuff coming down the pipes, so that will be a welcome foe.

Glad to see your blog rolling, those of us who count themselves among your fans can't get enough info about what's going on!  Keep them coming.

Cheers Lance

I really like the idea of a few Huron with clubs and Anglo-American Provincials, not necessarily in that order

OK, hint taken re getting back on with those Huron going our clubbing  :D

Meanwhile, I'm wondering whether to show some pics of the progress on the Provincials now, or wait until after Boxing Day. Is everyone too busy with Christmas shopping, office parties (watch out for those pitfalls) and other last minute jobs right now, or would a brief distraction be appreciated?

Really nice lance, like these a lot!  :D

I've just finished painting 20+ Hurons and just have 3 packs of French to do to complete everything! ;D Then I'd better order some more!
