Just engaging in a "ta-daaa!" moment – these chaps are the first historical unit I've had a chance to finish this year!

…also, a plug: you'll find these Frenchmen ready to march their way into your collection at Little Soldiers' eBay Store:

Shameless, I confess. But I hope you folk enjoy looking, regardless!

Hmm, pics are a little slow… sorry about the wait! Will make the next batch smaller.

Very nice!

Question: Why do you list them under Warhammer>Fantasy>Other Fantasy?

MacrossMartin29 Aug 2009 5:31 a.m. PST

Whups! Must go fix. Thanks very much for pointing that out.

Wow, nice work. I am working on getting some of the French.

I can recommend the Victrix, Tgreeley, except assembly is a fiddly exercise. I recommend building them as torso/legs + backpack + head + bayonet sheath, and only gluing the arms once the rest of the figure is painted. This also reduces the risk of damaging the musket and bayonet through over-handling.
Also, note the Silflor scenic material on the bases – lovely. Reduces basing time by at least half, and leaves anything from GW, GF9 or even Woodlands for dead, IM(not so)HO. ;)
