That's quite a statement old John, but I know what you mean:smile:

My paint brushes are not so much 'burning' as getting worn out at an alarming rate...but no matter, I have plenty held in reserve to meet the next wave of Strelets releases.:art: :art:

Re: Next Friday

Excellent figures! All are great, and the officer is a work of art.

I assume that these gentlemen are the command sprue for the very good marching musketeers that were previewed on 8th July?

These will make very fine Austrians...or Danes...or Prussians...or Saxons....or Spanish....:smile:

I'd better make some more space to accommodate a few regiments of these fellows!

Have a good weekend:slightly_smiling_face:

Not the least bit deserty....

Re: Next Friday

Too curly wurly for me they look like a 80's heavy metal band. :heart_eyes:

Re: Next Friday

Nah...they've always reminded me of an Adam & the Ants tribute band!!

Still think I might dip into the WSS though as a change. My main focus will still be Napoleonics...especially sets suitable for Waterloo or Leipzig.

Yes, you know it makes sense Roger. Just buy a box or two of the sets you like and paint them up as display pieces; no need for a big diorama, reserve your Napoleonic energies for that.

Then maybe another couple of boxes of the WoSS new releases. You'll be hooked before long, but you may be surprised by how satisfying it can be dry-brushing curly wigs and working on the details of an over-sized coat cuff !!

Have a good weekend:slightly_smiling_face:


PS: Adam and the Ants? Heavy metal band?? Well, to my eye they are early Bon Jovi, perhaps Whitesnake (version 4) etc etc

Re: Next Friday

An absolute bravo!! I truly believe that these will be collectors pieces at some point in the future. I hope to see many more components for the Austrians, as well as for the WSS era. Great scope for their use in fighting the Turks as well as other European nationalities. More troops of the Turkish Empire and the Crimean Khanate of the early 18th century would be quite wonderful subjects for a sculptor(s) of this quality. Thanks, Stretlets!

Re: Next Friday

These do look like excellent sculpts! Congratulations Strelets!
