Very Cool.
India at this time is a period I have always wanted to do.
Love the color.
Many I ask where the figures you have came from?
Thank you very much for sharing.

It is a fun period I knew nothing about.

A period I am very fond of and familiar with.

A lovely collection, full of color - nicely done.

Two specifics on the figures.

What make are those heavy guns with the ornate barrels?

Where was the French priest from?
Gary, Glynis, and Alasdair (there are three of us, but we are too mean to have more than one login)

It is a hodge podge. The ornate guns,british sepoys,Maharatta cav.,and inf.,shilaposh bodyguards,indian gunners,and early sepoys in white are "Indus Miniatures".The British east india regt/. is Perry southern continentals(AWI).The british guns are perry along w/ gunners in slouch hat and officers w/ such.Other british gunners are Eureka,along w/Mysore and Bengali inf/.,Rajput cav.and some civilians.
 Elephants are Foundry,old London warroom ,Mutineer ,Indus and Irregular.French sepoys are Old London Warroom,but Indus their own now. The Mortar=Eureka,Rockets and camel gunners Pindari
cav-Indus French guns perry and London Warroom. Monroes highlanders -Eureka.The French Comp.,des Indies regt. Front Rank. DeBusseys corps inf old London Warroom and Eureka. Hindu militia Eureka,and Indus. arab inf,foundry. I am sure I am missing something/.Indus and Eureka are my first choice and then fill in w/ the rest as you find it.It is a very fun period.oh yeah the priests are from Conquest miniatures.

Epic, thank you for sharing.  My collection is a hodge-podge of figures as well.  I love the cannon and several of them myself.  It is always an inspiration to see an "India " battle on the forum.
