We have a massive amount of new figures to show you from the work bench of Richard Ansell. He has sent me pictures of the Grenadiers de France in bearskins, 8 different Russian artillery crew, and personality figures for Fermor, von Browne and Prinz Moritz.

click on the link to the new Fife & Drum website (which now includes Minden Miniatures on the same site) and click on the Work Bench tab (under "More") at the top of the page.

Here is a little preview of what you will find on our Minden workbench:

Those look great. Any pictures of the Hessians for AWI?

The Hessians are next in the sculpting queue, so maybe in production in June/July of this year. We had run out of hessian dollies at the time of Stewart Griffin's passing, so to fill Richard's time I had him switch over to some SYW figures until we could get the Hessian parts cast. Now that we have the dollies, we can start sculpting the Hessians.

Congrats on getting the Russian crews coordinated!

And, the new personality figures are just fantastic…

ioannis16 Feb 2015 11:05 a.m. PST

How about bombardiers? Perhaps, separate heads…?

Great looking figures, well done.
Love the guns!

Thanks Jim,

I think all the stuff you have been getting in looks fantastic. I know the Hessians will look great as well.

Lovely minis… Do you plan to release something like "reinforcement" packs with varied poses for the rank and file guys?

Musketier17 Feb 2015 2:01 p.m. PST

"varied poses"?!

You must be thinking of Landsknechts, Sir, or else Napoleonic conscripts…

Yes, what Musketeer said.

The SYW range has a more formal look to it whereas the AWI is more informal and thus has more variety of poses.
