Fantastic!
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

Holy Smokes that's a lovely miniature, well done Ged. I think I'll be needing a priest after the curses at Ged for starting this range.

Well done to Ian on a fab miniature creation.

Cheers,

Helen
Best wishes,

Perry Sudan  mahdist
Carlist wars BAL
Mutineer Indian mutiny
Crimean Highlanders and Guards
Empress Maori War Brits
ACW Zouaves
GW LotR Haradrim
1866 Prussians
and lots of others.Try it, it's fun!

Is it to much to ask for some of this figure to be cast up for colours ;D

as far as suggestions, I think you should start with the Imperials. The other forces are pretty easy to find for the most part.

good idea Baron Von, theres the least uniform information on them with

Hefter being the best source but i have enough for Imperial lancers and some

of the exotic units!....................

anyone with additional uniform info would be appreciated so all angles are covered!!
especially for the imperials  , the company of Military Historians is a great source :)

You have raised the bar when it comes to 28mm historicals with this figure.
