It has been a little while since I popped on to the forums at TMP with an update so please find a few taster pictures of forthcoming releases of French line infantry figures.
Hope you like them. A couple of French greens… A Voltiguer and a Grenadier in marching poses.
A couple more French greens… Fusiliers of the Line advancing.
A French green. This time a fusilier of the line in marching pose.
Keep up to date with the progress at facebook.com/pages/Alban-Miniatures/323781817858 or albanminiatures.com |

To my mind, the chest strap looks very wide, and the hands look oversize as well. Otherwise they look nice. |

Glad to see the French Line coming along! I do agree about the width of the straps/webbing seeming broader than usually seen. Could be related to the more anatomic proportions, however. |

Please please consider removing the shako covers. These are great figures. Why hide the shako plates? |
| Widowson | 05 May 2013 10:46 a.m. PST |
And Marc is right. The cross straps are too wide. |

Will feed back re the cross straps. Here is an Alban Workbench update. Please note that this is all work in progress. First we create a dolly…
then add some equipment…
then we sculpt the required poses

Some more work in progress shots just in from the work bench…

How soon before they can be purchased? |
| AlbanMiniatures | 30 May 2013 3:39 p.m. PST |
Soon I hope. A few left to sculpt and some finishing to do then it's on to mould creation and casting. Feels like a Summer release right now.
All the best,

Great looking figs-Love the Officer and Sapper in particular |

ALBAN FRENCH LINE UPDATE: Figures received today and the straps have now been finished and look much better. I am very happy with the results.
I will be sending these off for moulds to be made up and will be releasing them to albanminiatures.com in due course.
I will make sure I put plenty of pictures on the Alban Miniatures Facebook site too so be sure to visit in the coming weeks.
All the best,
PL

Bonjour, I do like these and look forward to seeing some painted examples. Just a minor point about the officer's sword. It does seem to be the size of a furled umbrella which is a bit off-putting but maybe that'll be changed for the production chaps. Cheers, Paul |

Is that a corkscrew the pointing NCO(?) carries in his bayonet scabbard? |
returns to Flintloque to paint an Ogre.
