I see there is a new box of British paras coming out, what do you think are the best sculptures out there today? |

I think the Artizan are the best followed by the old Bolt Action sculpts by Paul Hicks. Warlord just announced a new plastic box which sculpting looks extremely mediocre in my opinion. |

I like the 1st Corps ones |

Perrys made some excellent ones for Foundry. My favorite to this day. |

Patrick R is quite right, the Foundry sculpts are beauties and size-wise fit nicely with Artizan. Sadly, as with all the Foundry WW2 ranges, incomplete, ie no heavy weapons. |

Don't overlook Crusader miniatures Brit paras. I have a platoon of them and they're my favorite of the above selections. |

Love the Warlord metals.
The casting is crisp and sharp, and they're refreshingly free of 28mm dwarfism. If you like Artizan, I'd recommend having a look at Renegade as well – very similar style to Mark Owen's sculpts. |
