New 40mm Franco Prussian range ....first figure
« on: 14 April 2012, 12:26:09 PM »
Gents

just to advise i will be doing the Franco Prussian War in 40mm

.......this will be a labour of love as the figures will be super-detailed

the first off the blocks being a Grenadier of the French imperial Guard

with every item of equipment highly detailed down to eagle stamps

and buckles..!!.....awaiting the srrival of the green.............followed by

other French troops then some Prussian Adverseries.

will update on this site
