He's from Foundry's swashbucklers range, most of the figures are. A lovely range of figures.

Thanks for the info, whiskey priest. I'll have to check them out.

It's a shame, but I guess it's a very nationalistic subject matter, with limited appeal to foreign markets.

Wonderful inspiration for miniature designs though:





Those comics look very interesting.  I would love to read them.  Anyone know if English translations are available?
This is my boomstick!

Looking at the Geuzen covers, I couldn't help but note that the heroine appears to have a girl friend who dresses like a boy (in typical Shakespearean mode !) and goes armed.  The Elizabeth Swann figure (from the same pack as Mistress Giselle) would make a good stand-in for such a character.  I'm watching this post with great interest.  I also have the Foundry Swashbucklers and Eureka Portugeuse (painting awaiting retirement) and this is giving me lots of ideas.

Yep, the Elizabeth Swann figure would make a great female character, I just don't like her hair cut! Maybe I'll green stuff her a more feminine do or find another head for her.

I've got all ''Geuzen'' and I can say they're actually very good.
Project is really intresting, will follow it for sure!

Lovely work. I'm loving your converted monk with the tall pointed hat.

The goodies

i may have missed this already but the chap in the centre of the photo here, is he a conversion or a model that can be purchased? If not a conversion which company would I need to have a look for?
