Just to help give a better idea of the content of the second command pack in stretch goal 1, here are the 3 figures I sketched for this; left to right: officer with pistol, ensign/officer with polearm, officer with fusil and bayonet.  :)

7 days to go on the Redcoats Kickstarter and we have less that £650 to go to get to the 2nd stretch goals, which are:

SYW/FIW B9 British Line Infantry Hat Company – NCOs and characters

SYW/FIW B10 British Line Infantry Hat Company - skirmish line

FIW BRT3 British Regular Infantry 60th Foot Hat Company 3 - NCOs and characters

FIW BRT4 British Regular Infantry 60th Foot Hat Company 4 - skirmish line

Meanwhile, here are a couple more of those incomplete pack guides:



FIW BRT2 will contain more standing and kneeling, but some wearing mitasses (Indian leggings) and some with more equipment etc.

Would love to support this but I only intend to play skirmish games so do not need large units. I will wait and order a small selection later maybe when there are some Compagnie Franches de la Marine figures

Thats what I said when I started my F&IW project but Lance's figures are just too good to resist, now I probably have enought to refight the whole war  lol

I think I figured out what to pledge to get one of every sculpt, LE stuff included. My obsessive dream come true!😉

REDCOATS KICKSTARTER UPDATE
Only 3 days to go and we're just £400 over our second stretch goal, but we can't feel safe yet, as this is the time when the casually interested "backers" drop out. So if there's anything you were considering pledging against but haven't done it yet, packs of figures, a T-shirt, please look again now and help us to get this great collection of British hatmen into production.  :D
We've also added in flags for those ensigns as an add-on.  8)

I've pledged £52 for the SYW/FIW Redcoats Level 1 but I don't seem to be able to add the T-Shirt to my pledge without deleting the £52 pledge. Am I doing something wrong?

No, you're not. All you need to do is hit the manage your pledge button and just add the T shirt cost to your pledge level increasing the amount. At the end of the Kickstarter there will be a form to complete which you just add what you have ordered.

I hope that makes sense.

Yes, it does. Many thanks, Malamute. I have now made my pledge £66 instead of just clicking on the T-shirt pledge, which I was doing before.

Cheers,   :)

Fully understood my friend, and I'm grateful for the support  :)
They should be available to buy in the new year.

Best regards,
Lance

Just 4 hours to go before the Kickstarter ends, anyone who isn't on board but wants any of those special limited release command figures - now's your chance.

A big thanks to all backers, we've almost beaten our original target by 300%  :)

I haven't been saying a great deal about our Redcoats since the Kickstarter finished, I've been busy sculpting more of the figures for those stretch goals  :)

Meanwhile, just for interest, here's a figure from the first pack painted as a soldier of the 58th Regt, I thought the black facings and yellow lace would make a nice contrast with the other regiments for my collection.
