The sculptor has done you proud again, so full of character, they really capture the period well. |

Splendid work! Patrick Sarsfield the man who popularised the name Patrick in Ireland. The 'Darling of the Army'. William and St Ruth look pretty good too, love your Seamus a Caca. |

Stunning miniatures and great addition to this colourful period. Raglan |

@Captain Cook – Wot nothing to do with the patron Saint then? |

Wow, these are so full of life, and I'm very sorely tempted, not that I need another period to game in. |

Overall, these are lovely figures; this is a nicely thought out range and I am glad to see elsewhere that it matches up with Dixon and the older Foundry WSS stuff. However, on these particular figures, you appear to have two problems that you may want the sculptor to look at before they go into production. 1) Two of the three cavalry command figures have very short legs, as does the right hand figure of the two generic mounted officers. 2) Two of the horses – the one ridden by William (and also by Sarsfield?), and the one ridden by the mounted figure in the AdC set and the left-hand generic commander – look like their front and back halves don't match up. On the former, the front half is clearly smaller than the rear half, in particular the legs are too short; on the latter, it's the other way round with the rump much too close to the ground. |

"Wot nothing to do with the patron Saint then?" Not so much although he provided the patronymic for a few families but for first names its Sarsefield. |

The character portfolio will extend from these first 4 personalities. Of course it depends how you paint the minis and ALL could be used as someone else I suspect. Sarsfield will be very useful as a cavalry brigadier in anyone's army! |

Lovely thank you for the link & I also like the apostle equipped infantry figures and the highlander in the same album keep up the good work |
