Has anyone got any photos of Warriors 15mm Jacobite rebellion figures please Or can point me to any such. Or even any written description for that matter. |

I have some but no photos. Sizewise they fit with Essex and Roundway. The poses are fine and the figures in proportion. Less detail than both Essex and Roundway but of course they cost less too. I tend to use them as the second rank on the base. I hope this helps. |

Cheers, exactly what I needed to know. Thanks again. |

You're welcome. Btw PTB had some very nice Minifigs Highlanders at £2.00 GBP a pack of 8, might be worth dropping them an email if its of interest. I bought a few to mix with Essex and Khurasan and I'm very pleased with the result. |

Hi Oh B, Did Minifigs make their own range of 15mm Jacobite Rebellion figures or were these the Matchlock Miniatures Jacobites listed on the current Minifigs website? link |
| Oh Bugger | 05 Feb 2017 6:32 p.m. PST |
They made their own too. The ones I have are from the ECW range I got packs of sword and targe in trews with plaid and bonnet and ditto in full kilted plaid. I wanted them for the Williamite Wars and they are fine for that. They would also do for later battles as well. I think they are really good figures although of course single pose so I mixed them. If you don't mind waiting a couple of days I'll stick a photo up of them here. I just need to finish off the basing first. |

@ Oh B, Thanks for the information. It would be great to see some pictures when you finish the basing. |

Here's the pic BB.
The two figures with sword and targe are minifigs as is the lad with the musket. |

Nice work Oh B. They are a ferocious looking bunch. I like your technique on the plaids. I tend to avoid doing anything 'tartan' because I feel I've got to attempt to do every warp and weft but the more impressionistic style looks just as good. I'm going to give it a try. It might get me over my 'painter's block' when it comes to Highlanders. |

Thanks, they actually look better at a slight distance but I wanted you to be able to see the figures close up. I think a good dollop of nut brown ink serves to bring up the warp and weft thing, then its just a bit of highlighting the key colours with the point of a small brush. I've two more units to do and then my Highlanders are thankfully done. Good luck with yours. |
