Mini Identification?

[Kommando_J]

I know they are foundry but wondering which packs the first and second minis from this pic are from?

I'm not sure...the second fig looks very similiar to one from DA011...



...but it's not.

They are from Wargames Foundry's Ever-Victorious Army range from the Taiping Rebellion. One of the figures is, I think, meant to be Charles George Gordon (Chinese Gordon).

I had a look on the Foundry site, but they don't seem to be available in the Colonial China section any more.

He's right. I painted those a long time ago.

From left to right, they are :

- Frederick Townsend Ward personality figure from the Taiping Rebellion range
- 'Chinese' Gordon personality figure from the same range as Earther says.
- Zulu War range British artillery officer in patrol jacket from pack DA15/7  



The EVA miniatures do appear to have been pulled from the main Foundry website.

Thanks for the info guys, must send off an email to foundry asking if any packs are still available, they look like they'd do nicely for an alternate looking Congo force.

Pack CH021 is the one you want :



I suspect you can still get it if you order it via e-mail. Beware though : being early to mid-1990's Perry sculpts, the Taiping War figures are smaller than the later DA miniatures done by Mark Copplestone : the former are 26mm while the latter are 28mm.

Funny you should mention the DA minis, I bough the traders and travellers pack and found that they are of varying heights, some of the miniatures are clearly conversions of older/smaller old west minis, so i'm not too bothered, I have seen the Townshend Ward mini up close and would happily mix him in with DA.

Also have any more pics of the taiping rebellion packs?

Ask and ye shall receive:







The other packs in the range can be found on the Foundry website.
