Hello all, I'm looking for paper models of troops for some 18thc gaming. I'm happy to try different views and play about with what works best for me.

Which war they are designed for is not specific as long as they have a tricorn on their bonces. I would prefer smaller scale troops though, however I am interested in trying my hand at larger stuff too just for the sake of giving it a go.

Quite keen to play about with this medium grin

Thanks very much guys, I had found this junior thingy prior to checking back here and very good it is too. Walkerloo has also been discovered although out of my preferred period for now it certainly highlights the potential.

Any top down sources that you can steer me towards?

Right, well I'm a bit stoopid huh? Thanks Magard.

The little bit of searching, lots of hits and LOTS of misses, I have done so far has yielded some very interesting results, particularly with buildings eg papermau blog.

What is the general consensus regarding paper quality and weight amongst the more experienced paperists?
