I currently own some Old Glory Sudanese for the Dervish campaigns of the 1880s and 1890s, but they're a little short compared to my other minis (the average Sudanese is about 6 foot, I believe). Does anyone know of other miniature producers that make minis of these soldiers? I was hoping they would look like this - file:///Users/stuartshumack/Desktop/Khangelan%20Soldier%20copy.jpg I would prefer it if the recomandations were roughly compatible with Brigade Games, Parroom Station, ect. |

hello the biggest ones are Redoubt..but too big in my opion a good compromise could be the Essex ones ..not only two nice poses of Sudaneses but you can alos purchase some Egyptians ,…they are the only ones ever produced with the appropriate modern British style uniform and bandolier (kaki uniform) and so the only ones that could be used together with your OG Sudanese (also in modern post reform uniform) complteted so your Sudan Reconquest Army…and they also made a nice Egyptian bagpiper… link |

My favourite Sudan figures, especially for the imperial types, are Connoisseur now cast (beautifully) by Bicorne. They are tall, slender, but still robust. Of course, they are an older style of sculpting most commonly compared to Gilder's disciple, Perter Morbey (I hope he takes that as a compliment). The range is not huge in scope but worth a look, in my opinion. See Pyjamas through the desert blog for pictures. |

This link should take you to a useful picture:
I use the same range of figures for my BFE battles and love the look. Cheers, Chris |

Note that in the first picture the OG Ansar are based on thicker material -- the Connoisseur Egyptians (and Sudanese) are definitely taller. |
