Crimean Turks and British Grenadiers, and now AIP is in the mix

Are any of you aware of a manufacturer that is planning to produce CW Turks and British Grenadiers?

Sorry SR, couldn't resist.

When can we see masters of the remaining CW Big Box contents for March?

For those that collect 54mm, I just read that AIP is going to produce CW cavalry, a first in 54mm plastics.

Take care

Re: Crimean Turks and British Grenadiers, and now AIP is in the mix

I dont buy many larger figures and to my eye AIP are quite ugly, but I do love the Crimean War and just might be tempted if they look OK. Cant see them on the AIP website so where did you spot them?

I think SR know the view of me and everybody else on finishing their CW range :-)

I didn't know about AIP either:ugly or not -are they easy to paint?!
:Helmet kits do the 3 basic British light cavalry types : Bit more fiddly & they are kits.The thing about 54mm 1/32 is you are also in the model soldier vs toy soldier arena: you have to balance accuracy/detail over what the figures are intended to represent.
Look at W Britains etc soldiers of period -nice to look at/ handpainted etc but they are toy soldier style.
Is there a mounted Russianinfantry/artillery officer in the Strelets/other CW ranges or have I missed something?
