Of course, longer coats and un-gaitered makes them more useful for other theatres of war

While this may or may not  be a good financial decision, I want my provincials to look like the only place they could be is in the Northwest USA for the FIW. 

I have to say that I prefer the models without open hands as well.  This coming from a guy who's starting a business using a variation on that theme.  I like the figures the way they are, if you want opinions.  I don't mean to disagree with you Stanley, I've been really enjoying watching your game and listening to the banter.  Keep up the great work, AAR are far too few around here.

A good point well made Sir.

My only real interest with the figures* is for the Northwest USA for the FIW. I'm going to be picking up 2 or 3 units of Provs when Lance releases them.

I have family near the Lakes, i'll have to wangle an invitation over  :)

* I did have half an eye on these for AWI as well. So many projects, so little time ...

We've not had a presence at any of the wargames shows until now, starting on Sunday 5th February at Vapnartak in the Knavesmire stand at York Racecourse, Caliver Books will have a stock available.  :)


Check out the newly painted settler I put up on the "Painted FIW Settlers" thread, more pics on the Studio page of the website.
More new pics to come on here in the next few days.

Cheers,
Lance

Latest "Soldiers Free" character.



Here is our latest “Soldiers Free” figure. Some of you recently placing orders for 4 or more packs of figures, or for books or rules, will already have one of these. H.M.Stanley and Fergal have painted versions on threads here already.  8)

More pics of the painted figure can be found on the Studio Page, and some suggestions as to how you may want to use him have been added to the Soldiers Free Page.

How about some later figures (natives for the War of 1812)?
Gary, Glynis, and Alasdair (there are three of us, but we are too mean to have more than one login)

Excellent news there.

I may have to combine Hammershead with a visit to the 17th/21st Regimental Museum

I'd love to - later ;)

Funny you should mention that, I've been contacted by a chap in Canada who's using our Mohawk etc for that period. It's a period I do like, but I'd want to sculpt Native Americans tailored for the period.

One for me to think about there  8)
