Re: The French and Indian war or seven years war has not been depicted in 1-72 scale

Concordo che dei set di guerrieri irochesi ed alconchini per la guerra franco indiana sarebbero anche da me molto apprezzati, inoltre anche dei bei rangers e dei miliziani canadesi prodotti con la solita precisione di strelets sarebbero molto graditi.

Re: The French and Indian war or seven years war has not been depicted in 1-72 scale

È tutto molto bello e per ogni periodo ci potrebbero essere dei set nuovi per strelets da realizzare.... Io insisto che per me sarebbe già bello per il periodo napoleonico vedere completare nelle pose di riposo / sugli attenti / armi in spalla / marcia / all' attacco / tiro / quadrato / scaramuccia per i set francesi di linea e granatieri dove mancano ma anche per prussiani BRUNSWICK NASSAU HANNOVER BELGI OLANDESI e russi austriaci spagnoli e portoghesi.... E set di cavalleria inglese in pose originali come solo strelets e linear A saprebbero fare..... Poi citando il primo set strelets il famoso 001 orgoglioso di averne qualche scatola.... Vedere qualcosa di simile per gli altri contingenti presenti a waterloo sarebbe veramente originale! Cmq strelets voi fate come volete noi saremo sempre qui a sognare e appena set pronti ad acquistarne !

I get where you’re coming from Danny, in the sense that the Napoleonic Wars were nearly two decades long and as such had a tremendous amount of units and nations involved with countless uniforms being worn. If Napoleonics is the primary era you collect as well then you’ll especially want better coverage. But to say it’d be pointless to cover the AWI because HaT currently is, is like saying it’d be pointless to cover the Napoleonic Wars because HaT already is/has. Hat makes a good product but they only ever cover the basics. Their AWI range is good start, but there is so much missing. Almost every campaign had unique uniforms involved no where else in the war. If you ever get the chance take a look at Don Troiani’s soldier study series on paintings on the war. You’ll see just what I mean. I think to cover it properly would be a very daunting task. But anyways, I’m always happy to keep working on current projects. I’m very happy with the current production rate Strelets has had recently.

Hi Asher
That's a fair point you make about a lot of the non regular, Tory and militia units with alternate dress for AWI.

I have no objection to any new set and sets of the above would be very interesting.

Commercially though some of the yet to be produced mainstream subjects for both Napoleonic and WSS may be better for a quicker financial return to help keep our generous host in business, and our hobby dreams alive.

Cheers
Danny

I’m completely with you there Danny. I collect both Napoleonics and WSS and between those alone my hands and time are full. I’d rather Strelets see these topics through first before embarking on another large project. And as you said, at the end of the day we need the company to do what’s best for themselves financially.
