A few things worry me, in what are nicely proportioned figures, I must first say. As artillery crew, they may well fit in with their larger 28mm brethren from other manufacturers, unlike some of their other releases.

The top right chap surely appeared in "The Walking Dead" as Third Zombie.

The middle left chap is trying on his shako, but will find it three sizes too big I fear.

No, the real worry is what seem to be flaming grenades on the front of each shako. Not something I have seen before for Belgic Shako………

I like them. Would like to see these guys in stovepipe shakos.

I agree, no flaming grenades rather a badge similar to the infantry, IAW C.E. Franklin's Artillery book.

However, it is hard to discern if the plate is really ma small badge with a very large crown or a flaming grenade.
