There is something about the original WF sculpts that I still find a little strange. I don't know if it's their skinny proportions or slightly stiff postures. But they undoubtedly look better after a bit of surgical attention from Dr Steve  ;)
Still loving the fat slattern  :D

@Giles
Sorry but I can't commit to the weekdays either. Others own me for then!  :)

I agree. They give the impression of being somewhat long-legged though I don't think they actually are. They are also slim, though that fits with my idea of the 18th century.

Compared to Perry plastics, they are generally more dynamically posed but - and it's a big but - this really does limit the 'out of the box' options. Thus attempts at surgery-free variation can result in some very strange stances and postures. On the plus side, the sprues include loads and loads of extras, which for me increases the potential for change and thus the fun to be had.  :D

Great stuff, Dr Steve.
Good to see you back at this one.
Loving all the conversions, even second time around.
