Wow. Those are too nice.

Very nice sculpts; the painting ones are grand. Dean

They look rather nice :0)

Stonking good!

droolworthy!

Oh, they are gorgeous. I will have to get some of the sailors – here's hoping NorthStar will stock them.

The sheer *character* of these is unbelievable.

Paul Hicks has been one of my favorite sculptors for years, but lately, it seems to me like he's rivaling the esteemed Tom Meier in sheer expressiveness and craft.

I agree, the excellant sculpts are full of character. I have the RN sailors and naval landing party, they are superb--very clean figures that are ready to paint. I will order these French sailors soon.

I love bicornes and dismounted dragoons.

Thanks all –

We do ship worldwide.

Yes, excellent sculpts and full of character. What more could one ask?

Outstanding stuff!

These are almost too good for wargaming! Almost…

The dismounted dragoons are covered with awesome.

Now there are some GREAT scuplts !!!!

Lovely stuff!!!

lovely!

OOOOoo Those are so cool looking

We like!!!!!!

Especially since I'm looking for Spanish guerillas and French dismounted dragoons.

Grats Lon !!
Lon how do the dismounted dragoons match up with Perry's?

Jeff:

You may be asking about size matching, but it appears these are in the earlier coat (by the lapels & waistcoat), whereas the Perry guys are in the later 1812 Bardin reg coats. Otherwise they look like they'd fit in well side by side with the Perry dragoons. Dean

I can not aford these, I can not aford these, I can not aford, these.

Hey can someone "loan" me $1,000 USD, or even better, can one of you walk down a dark alley one night, just let me know before you go there

I know you paint fast Gunfreak, but yeah you can afford them. They are priced competitively and I will do large unit deals.

More to come…

Are the large unit deals on the web?

thats what we nwwd , more French..well done that man..who would have thunk it?SS next?
hmm the foot dragoons are nice..

No doubt about it, these are quality sculpts. Well done.

I could see the French sailors as Canadian militia/sailors for War of 1812.
Regardless, those are all wonderful figures.

There are some on the web, but contact me via the contact us page (it is the best way) for what you are looking for. They would need to be at least the size of the other deals or larger on a group of figures (e.g. a British line unit, a French line unit, etc.)

Be aware that I will pretty much be out of the loop until Monday because of Cold Wars so I might not be able to get back to you until then.

Just to give you a little more to froth over, here are more of our RN Landing Party painted by Richard Lloyd and our French Dromedary Command from a customer's collection.

Damn you sir, I just started a new project, 1805-1807.

Orderd som victrix metal russians and a unit of french in bicorne.

I have the RN sailors and naval landing party, they are superb

Anyone know how these and the Gendarmes compare with Victrix Peninsular troops?

Victrix metal is also sculpted by Paul Hicks so 100% compatible. As far as the plastics our metals are sized to be compatible with Perry and Victrix.

Good stuff.

I recently did a review of their British Landing Party
see: link

there is a comparison picture within

cheers

Doug:

Huh? You have a BLOG?! Traitor! Dean

Lon-are you planning on doing Royal Marines to go with the landing party?

Would love to see infantry in the earlier 1792-1795 coat, Hornblower at Quiberon would then be posssible

Oh, they are very nice. Almost tempting me back from my 1/72 to go and do Egypt. Lovely paintwork on lovely figures – well done to you all.

Checking on size comparison Dean, thanks. Now have to see if I'm still capable of doing conversions. :)

Thanks for taking the time to confirm. Looking at the images of the French Egypt in Egypt range, I really couldn't see how this was not the same,very talented, sculptor.

Excellent news all around…

Lon,

Are command in the queue for the new French? I am also hoping for some Swiss and Walloon Guards for the Spanish!!!
