Wondering if these heads would do as Forage caps for British in Maori Wars?

Do I spy some 1st corps?

You do, I picked up around 50 of their Cape wars range and hae been converting them with head swaps. To officer in shirt sleeves is perfect as a militia officer in his pork pie hat  :D the other has a perry carlist head chop and is a subaltern :)

How do they stack scale wise against the empress stuff? I heard it's a bit small which is a shame as the command officers are especially good.

Also funnily enough i've had a similar thought for the militia officer, even using that miniature from 1st corps after reading a  series of colonial battle articles in Wargames illustrated, always though the militia need their own command set in more casual clothes.

They are smaller, but I am keeping them in separate units. I have used Tam Oshanter heads on the 1st corps minis which actually make them fit a little better too

will try and get a photo up so you can see what I mean
