Amazing work Stuart!  :o  :-*  :o

Your control of the putty pushing just gets better and better!  :-*

Fantastic news that they might be cast up as I could certainly do with some standing poses to go with the humungous number of dollies I have bought in more active poses!

Do keep us all posted please  8)

Perry's & Steel Fist will be looking forward to the royalty cheque once you cast these.

That's pretty cool. Looking forward to grabbing some in the future.

What Stuart says, is that the dollies will be cast up - not the temporary examples he shows here using Perry parts on the green dollies.
Also doubt that Steel Fist will be demanding royalties for the use of their ankles and feet. Stuart and Simon (who owns Steel Fist) are the best of friends, long term collaborators, and gaming buddies.

It pays to be abreast of the facts before casting aspersions.

Nice sculpting, and great idea to use the artillery crew as a base!

They'll definitely save cutting the legs from the WotR bodies! I've got a pile of kneeless torsos from my last attempts!  lol

I would hazard a guess that if these become commercially available one day, it might be Steel Fist that ends up selling them, as happened with the previous dollies by Stuart:

https://www.steelfistminiatures.com/product/wfd-10.-tudor-dollies/

I do actually have a dozen of those dollies, though I have not yet glued any arms or heads to them. Still good to hear that more variants, in more static poses, might be coming up in the future.

Apologies for any confusion.

The first pack of dollies were made, cast and distributed by me with the approval of Perry Miniatures - they were specifically created to take the arms of the WOTR plastic sets. Initially not commercially I might add.

They did quite well and I made the decision to offer ownership and production over to Steel Fist Miniatures.

This process is pretty much the same. I’ve a load of spare arms left over from the mercenaries sets and in anticipation of making some 16c figures from them I’m hoping to use existing channels to get them cast again.

Both manufacturers who are supportive of the venture and good friends, will benefit from this and I’ll get some new figures to paint.

Hope that clears things up.

I just had a evil thought about possible future dollies. Guys in "Almain River". Ether in standing or more in a aggressive pose.  ;)

They’re here !

And very quickly sold out  :D

Hopefully not too long for a re-stock, here’s a quick look at a couple of painted examples without conversion, an English archer in Stanley livery snd a Scots arquebusier in Douglas livery.

Also some figures I’ve started to convert with them, I’ll post up further progress soon.

Lots of possibilities for these.
