I have been experimenting with adding new units to my Mexican Revolution collection to add some variety – so have been playing around with some Artisan, Irregular and Tiger Miniatures 'other ranges'.

You can see how it all turned out on my blog:

I think they look the part.

They do look good, Corporal!
I thought the Tiger figures were somewhat larger than Old Glory and Artizan, but they don't look out of place.

By the way, I went the opposite direction, turning some Foundry Maximillian Mexicans into Greeks.

Don't forget the Boers. They make excellent revolutionaries.

Wow, all of your new "imposter" additions look fantastic to me! I especially like the Mexican General on foot and his escorts, and the Federale cavalry made from Tiger Balkan Wars Greeks. Excellent paint-jobs on all of them!

Thanks Mad Guru – they were enjoyable to paint and 'convert'

My son and I used Copplestone Chinese as Mexican Regular. The "Tin Hats" in upper right don't really fit, but we need to boost the troops.
