Napoleonic Naval Officers
« on: 20 August 2011, 10:15:05 PM »
Hello guys,

I'm looking for some napoleonic figs, especially british and french naval officers (captain, master and commander etc.) in 28 mm.
There was a range of Britannia miniatures, but the new webpage doesn't shows them.
Do you no other figures ? No marines.

Steve Barber
Redoubt
Newline design

You can still buy Britannia from Grubby tanks:

Hi traveller,

thanks a lot. I don't really know the Barber miniatures til now. Great.
Newline design is to small to mix the figures with Foundry.
What's about the the Britannia and Barber miniatures ?

I have the Foundry Sailors and Marines and they mix fine with the Britannia figures.

I dont have any naval miniatures from Steve Barber yet but the rest of his ranges are on the small side compared to the "newer" Foundry ranges. Redoubt works fine though. They have some good naval officers in Bicorne.

The Steve Barber figures are small but their Nelson works ok with Britannia as he was such a little chap.

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/

Thanks for your help. So I think I will order the Britannia figs (but the Brigade guys are also very nice).
Unfortunately the french marine stuff from the old Britannia page is not listed again. I remember there was a Officer aiming with his pistol.
I think, I will send them a mail.
