I'd love to see a vignette with Von Blucher under his horse, being pulled out by his adc.

They do look superb.

[Napoleonic geek/pedant warning – the standing crops were still green at Waterloo, being June they hadn't ripened to a golden colour…]

How about a vignette of a KGL colour being scored by French horse! Lol

Beautiful work, as usual.

Thanks Alan & Michael,

I love waking up to a Perry release announcement!

It's these sort of vignettes & personality items that really highlight your skill and creativity as sculptors. Nonpareil is the word that comes to mind!

Selfishly hoping more Napoleonic vignettes may follow.

These are fantastic and an order will shortly follow.

These vignettes are absolutely wonderful in concept design and sculpting…. not to mention the beautiful brushwork!!

I'm buying and that, as they say, is that!

Darrell.

As much as I admire the excellent sculpting and paintwork I am curious as to how people plan to use these vignettes in a tabletop game setting? The Ponsonby set would certainly be straight forward but the others? Me, I'm looking forward to the British and Canadian BIF High Command!

Wonderful stuff again. Perrys always seem to have a surprise present coming.

I want Legros and the drummer boy from Hougomont

No cuirassier Lami and the flag of the 69th?

Col Blancard26 Mar 2015 8:18 a.m. PST

yep, what about French cuirassiers capturing KGL flags? (two flags for two vignettes? ^^)

please no cuirassiers falling into the sunken road though!! :)

Of course, you have missed out Christie, Ponsonby's other ADC from 5th Dragoon Guards, whom I toiled to create, lovingly….only to later read he spent the whole day in Brussels……….sob.

Do I recall a hint at Somerset as well?

Someone will say it……the GMB flags…….(pre 1815 version?)

SHHHHH, no one will notice, only a real geek………..absolutely wonderful work!

The BIF command set should have a Flashman. What's a Victorian era army running about without Ole Flashy? It's like tea without biscuits. Maybe a vignette of Flashy in action?

Hi

If I did this scale I would be more than happy to have pretty much all the figures mixed in with standard fare – even the chap robbing the French flag would be put into the appropriate heavy cavalry unit!

Absolutely wonderful figs (and painting -love the wheat!)
Can't wait to get all these sets, and anything else 1815 they manage to churn out before June.

seldonH26 Mar 2015 5:29 p.m. PST

just beautiful

Glengarry526 Mar 2015 11:28 p.m. PST

mad Monkey 1, I think the figure of Capt Julius Gasgoine would make a good Flashman stand in!

mad monkey 127 Mar 2015 6:56 a.m. PST

You're probably right, but still….

Hi deadhead

The flags in the Perries photos are very old 2001 version of the 1815 flags – I was surprised to see them…

My ( much better) newer versions – are now about 4 years old. They are a bit smaller and daintier with crisper details…

…and a fringe. A French customer had been campaigning for the fringe – I finally gave in.
