They are beaut ideas Danny!

I too like to make vignettes as command stands, so these figures will be great for such purposes, or as special markers or 'characters' within a unit.

It'd be really fabulous if they are 'extras' for the Egyptian campaign and include scientists who accompanied the 'expedition' and lead to the birth of Egyptology! (The fella with the umbrella and top hat could be one, as you noted. A few with instruments would be beaut too.)

Best wishes, James

p.s. It seems that 'while the cat's away...' the spammers have gone ballistic and our little conversation will be lost in a mire of useless, misleading or dangerous rubbish...!!!

I think you may have hit the nail on the head Danny. My only questions remain with the shot gun fellow as you mentioned. He looks a bit too bundled up for Egypt, and then I do think some of the initial mounted sculpts teased were Natives. My mistake was assuming it all had to be one set

Hi Asher

Yes the crossed arms guy does look a bit too rugged up for the desert (in the day at least) and may belong with the other set(s) of foot miliia or mounted First Nations people that were previewed previously.

A 'Black Seminole' perhaps?

The intrigue and anticipation continues !

Cheers
Danny
