Welcome to the Strelets Forum. Please feel free to discuss any aspect of 1/72 scale plastic figures, not simply Strelets. If you have any questions about our products then we will answer them here.
Thank you for the very nice scots!
The riders are more mysterious for me.
They look like hussars with their fur-hats, but the jackets and belts doesn´t fit to hussars of this conflict. Who has an idea, which new cavalry-unit we see?
Highlanders look interesting, but for what era are they intended? Not the Crimea again I hope?
If Napoleonic they seem really nice figures! Could this be the start of my much requested "in square" sets??!! The highlanders already had a set "in square" out anyway (by Waterloo 1815), but this will add to that set nicely.đ
What I would really look forward to seeing is some British/KGL line in square/defense in similar poses to these fellows!!! No forage caps though please Strelets!! All nicely done Belgic Shakos please!!
Really need a set like that when you think of all the non-kilted redcoats that had form square at Waterloo.
Make that set really nicely & I will forgive you for the poor British firing line & the horses!!!!đđ
Brunswick Infantry need a good defensive/in square set too!! đ
Well, I would assume these are Napoleonic Highlanders, probably, indeed, intended for a square.
The illustration below I assume is the box art for WoSS Set 253 French Dragoons in Attack.
If that means the latter are on their way, that is very good news. It's great artwork.
Indeed, these look like Napoleonic Highlanders 'in defence' to me as well. Hopefully these will not be marketed as 'Thin Red Line' Crimean War Highlanders though; but certainly useful for creating a square for the later Napoleonic/Hundred Days period.
The box art for the French Dragoons in Attack looks strikingly good. Well done again to the artist!
Wow ! we had the Red arrows a few weeks back go over and a few years ago a DC-3 Dakota in D-Day stripes flew over very low , part of the 101st Airborne flew from the airfield at the end of the village for D-DAY and Market garden. The fly over was tagged on with Yeovilton air day.
I do like the highlanders but i find them very hard to paint it takes me months to finish a box & I still have the last two highlanders sets from strelets to start as well I am going to busy:grimacing:
