Fergal - you've certainly got what I'm trying to do: capture the true feel of the period. Lets hope they go down as well with other FIW enthusiasts :)

I think your range is the FIW enthusiasts FIW range.  :)  I'll know you've jumped the shark when the coureur des bois in coon skin hats show up!

I've just received a shipment of the new Osprey French & Indian War title  :)



Only just had time for a quick glance at my own copy, but looks very good.
As with all book orders, if you order it through us you'll get a "Soldiers Free" figure to go with it.  :D

I've just been taking some more pictures, here's one of them:



The first 3 of the 6 figures for the pack of Anglo-American Militia with bayonets - the other 3 are in progress. As well as militia, these will be especially suited for use as Provincials before uniforms were issued, or to represent the provincial troops from any of the colonies which did not issue uniforms, or just to give added variety to other provincial units.  :)

Very nice figures Lance, and having seen the others in the pack I'm very impressed!  ;)

Thanks Derek - heading towards a pre-release deal on the 4 militia packs  :D

I'm considering doing a special limited edition giveaway figure for a pre-release deal that doesn't become generally available thereafter.  :?
Anyone think that might go down well   ???
or just press on with finishing the 4 packs?  ;)

Cheers,
Lance

I just put some more pictures on the Studio page, was going to post them here but Image Shack is down.  >:(

So many forums etc seem to be losing/changing their hosts - hope we're safe here   :(

I'll post more pics when (if?) the problem gets sorted.

Cheers,
Lance

As a bit of a seasonal special treat, until 1st January 2014 (or sooner if stocks run out), I'm offering "White Savage" by Fintan O'Toole in paperback at the reduced price of £4.50 + postage and will be sending out 2 "Soldiers Free" instead of 1 with it. After the offer closes, this great book will return to £8.50.
For more about this book, go to the Wargames Rules & Books page of the website.

I felt a strong need to paint the Parson from the recently released pack FIW AAC3 Settlers Defending Command & Characters  :)

This guy is going to be awesome for the conflicts prior to the FIW.  Prior to the FIW, It was mostly fiery Catholic Priests riling up the Natives and leading them against the English settlers.  I've been waiting for a nice Godly man to lead the war parties for a bit.  This gent fits the bill very well!
