Just put of interest. Once you ave completed this project, do you intend to keep them, or sell them.

Hi Richie .
Nearly an impossible ask . I've finally settled on either one of the Naval Brigade . .
cheers 90th.

Hi CTSG,
For the minute I intend to keep, but if I can't fit them all in my display cabinet then I will off load some

Hi mon ami,
For the minute I can only do the above, the reason being is I have the figures, parts and reference material to be able to do these and this has cost me a small fortune. If I could locate good 120mm scale figures for Zulu warriors that would be a different matter.
Anyway please cast a vote for one of the above.
cheers
Richie

Hi Admin,
If enough people vote for a Caleb Wood figure I am sure I could convert a figure to suit. But what I would need is a couple of decent photo's if available to try and get a likeness. If not - please do join in anyway and cast a vote for your favourites on the list.
cheers

I will take the Lancer off your hands :lol:

No 1 please, CSgt Bourne!

Hi
Thank you to the people who have voted, if there are no more takers then
it looks like Redvers Buller rescue of D'Arcy. It will take some
making, as the Lancer - off and on took me three and a half months, so please be patient and bear with me. I will post some regular updates when I have made some significant progress.

I will for a break from this project try and do a project in tandem and produce a Naval figure aswell - I will do a Sailor Royal Naval lading party.

Good luck with that Richie - I really look 4wd to seeing the finished models

Hi tasker224,
Cheers for that mate [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] , I think it's time to get the pen and paper out and start some serious planning.
cheers
Richie

Hi Richie .
I'll go with the Sailor and happy to see you have also agreed to one in your tandem project . I'm also willing to help you out and would be agreeable to take the Naval fIgure off your hands . :lol: . May be advisable to make 2 , as
Petty Officer Tom , I'm sure would be extremely happy to help you out by taking the other .
Good luck Richie , looking forward to the progress reports / pictures .
cheers 90th.

Mrs Witt please...........................................

Hi springbok9,
Now that's just the type of answer I would give! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] There's always one....... and it's usually me, glad too see I'm not the only one with a dry sense of humour.

If you could see my sculpting - she would probably end up looking like a springbok tight head prop......not a pretty sight.

cheers mate
Richie

Hi Richie

For me it's Peter O’Toole as Lord Chelmsford. Great actors for Great general.
