Thank you, I misunderstood it. Are the 60th foot light troops?

60th are regulars, they had grenadier and light companies (for release later), most of the soldiers of all 4 battalions of the 60th were hatmen from hat companies  :)

Cheers,
Lance

Just received the miniatures; there great!  ;D

Just one problem: when I read about the Kickstarter I was aiming at 2 units for Muskets & Tomahawk. Looking at the miniatures in front of me I should start a SYW Sharp Practice force.........
Now start painting and wait for the next Kickstarter from Galloping Major (French maybe?)

Great figures as usual but I don't think I will get them painted very quickly, so much lace, buttons and equipment. I've started a mini production line, one colour on 10 figs at a time, hope this helps  lol

My package arrived unexpectedly today with no problems. Thank you so very much Lance. The enclosed note was a  nice touch and professional. The figures look amazing as usual and will be a real treat to paint!! I now have a lot of work to do...filing, waiting for the weather to warm up to spray prime them and then of course paint them. How exciting!! What a great kick-starter!! Congratulations on meeting all of your Limited Edition releases. You should be very proud of your accomplishments. I am extremely satisfied in having backed you in this venture.
Regards,
Hitman

All the little men requested arrived in a small truck with little fanfare.  They were received with great pleasure and admiration for the man who produces them for our pleasurable pursuits.  I surely need more of them to fill the table.

What would be a good combination of packs for a 24 man unit of hatmen in two ranks charging and the same question for a unit firing? I especially have trouble picturing what the charging unit would look like with the various charge stances. I need them for Sharp Practice.

Got my figures for 60th Foot, very good quality, very pleased with them, very little preparation is needed so after a quick wash I am now painting them.
