Help with Identification - Kepi figs?
« on: 23 May 2012, 11:54:56 PM »
Hi, I was wondering if any of you had any idea what these could be? They are 32mm scale guys with rifles in Kepi headgear. They appear to have double breasted great coats. They are hefty figures and feel a little like Foundry in weight and quality. But I can't find them on the Foundry site. Heck, I don't even know what period they are-- American Civil War? Franco-Prussian? Old West Army?

Any ideas that you have would be greatly appreciated!

Bill

They look more like Artizan stuff to me. Can't find them on the site, though.

They look like Renegade WWI French to me. I believe they're Mike Owen sculpts which is why look like Artizan stuff...

Well Done, MrJ! Thank you! I looked at Renegade's site--but managed to miss the French section. I really appreciate it!

No problem. Glad I could help. Lovely figures and the price is nice too, I'm busy working on some WWI Germans atm.
