Some tremendous stuff there old chap, I look forward to handing over some cash for them.

It was only recently I discovered Sid was a South African and now my image of him is as a Boer  ::)

Whatever happened to "Cluedo"?

Another great collection, Paul.

Brilliant :-*

Sid and Charlie are my pick. Carry on and do some more of the gang. A BBW matron would fit the bill nicely.

Fantastic! Any chance of getting one of those Weasel Command fellas down the road as a single?
I am looking for the following Deadlands minis:  Shotgun Thug, Lost Soul, Cleaners, Railroad Workers & Feral Dead. If you have any of these minis, or if you are one, please send me a PM.

I have no idea what characters in fiction or reality Sid & George are based, but they're awesome and I want them as comic relief in my Lost World safari games!

Ah! I was thinking it was Ronnie Corbett and (guessing) Tommy Cooper, but the latter didn't make sense without the fez. Great I am always intrigued by Pauls work as I have to work to get some of the references. They are gorgeous, by the way.

Now, the Major Pippin figs I still don't get. I was thinking Sgt Pepper, but the uniforms are not the same...

The Sid figure is based on a famous British Comedy actor Sid James while George is based on another Charles Hawtrey

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0416228/

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001889/

Also look up Carry on Films

The ceremonial guard just by accident look very much like they are wearing the same uniform as the stop motion figures.



All the best

More excellent stuff there Paul. Well done.

The Not Pippins Fort troops would make for good Ruritanians, methinks. Somebody tell Red Orc...

Now back to more British sailors for Brigade Games please  :D

Amazing work! The Dead eyed Henchman is my favourite. I'll have to find a way to smuggle him into my BoB games.
