Massimo's latest project
This morning I've received some photos from Massimo. Custer's last stand. As usual great conversions which will be marvelous when painted1
We have several sets of Sioux on the market, but beside the - in my eyes - terrible Lucky-Toys and the old Atlantic we have no 7th cavalry. Hopefully one manufactor will take care about this in the future

Poles arrived
Maybe you have read the sad story of the payment I made for some Polish masters and what happened afterwards.
Now the good news. On Christmas Bartosz contacted me, telling me that he is very sick and spent a lot of time at the hospital. I asked him to send me the nearly finished figures over now as Andy offered to complete the sculpting. And what a surprise - this time the parcel arrived.
Great figures and sculpting of Napoleonic Polish infantry in the right uniform and correct poses.
So I will send them to Andy now to complete some missing buttons and sabres. Afterwards they will go to the caster and I hope I can offer them for sell soon - and get some of the money for the masters back....
Tell me what do you think about them. Bartosz already did the Russian militia and Spanish Guerillia. I think this Polish infantry here are better then what we have in plastic from him.
We have Fusiliers, Voltigeurs and Grenadiers. As far as I know the only elite companies on the markets since Hinton Hunt.
BTW, in the backround you can see some old Minifigs S-Range figures from my friend Clive who sent me over some samples for which I asked him.

More HAT Testshots
After painting the NNC I continued with the Frontier Lighthorse. One of them I converted into a Durban mounted Rifleman.
The riders are a little bit too big for the riders, so I guess HAT will change the size of them. A very useful set for the battle of Hlobane or Khambula (the latter another idea of mine for a diorama).

Being in a mood to post today
This noon when I came home I found a parcel with the latest HAT testshots. Wow, what great stuff they sent, late Romans and Sassanids as well as several sets of my favourite colonial war - Zulu!!!
Well after bringing my son to bed I took at once the brush and colours. After 2 1/4 hours see the result of the first testshot - Natal Native Infantry. As my plan is to do Isandhlwana in 1:1 one day I guess I need several hundreds more of them.
Great plastic, easy to paint.

Mysore
As I am in need to get enemies for my own production Sepoys I searched some volunteers to share the costs and now we are down to around 10 Euro each for a master. The first one is already done and it is a Mysorean rocketeer.
While searchig through the blogs of my favourite list, I came over this from Colconda rising which looks really good.

And here are the photos from the first Mysore master Leo from Argentina sculpted for me in 1/72.
