Heavily Converted French Line Officer - Elite Miniatures

This beautiful figure was given to me recently by Victor Perry (Adventure Miniatures). Victor has heavily converted a French foot figure, from the Elite Miniatures range, into this fantastically designed French Middle Guard Officer. He has moulded the figure basically from scratch but has maintained the head and arms from the original figure so as to still give that classic Elite Miniatures look, which I am sure Peter Morbey would be very proud off.

Replica German PzII - History Alive

I have just uploaded some great pictures a friend of mind took of this fantastic replica PzII. He was able to take the images whilst participating in this years 'History Alive' weekend in Brisbane. The same group also had built a 222 from scratch, just the other year and have done another fantastic job on this little number. The re-enactment group is call Ausreeenact in QLA and can be found at http://www.ausreenact.org/...so please enjoy

The Battle of the Boyne

Two weeks ago my good friend Andrew Parr played a section from the Battle of the Boyne. I'm not sure which section of the field he played as the battle was spread across a wide front on the Boyne River. However the figures look great which has made me a little envious to collect this period......hmmm maybe when I grow up???

Sash & Saber Miniatures - Dismounted Union Cavalry

It has been a while since my last post...sorry about that work has been keeping me very busy and I have been away from home most of the time. However I did manage to finish a unit of Sash & Saber dismounted Union cavalry. I would have to say that I think these figures are the best ACW range around, lots of character and a real joy to paint. We are planning another ACW game in the next few weeks so hopefully they might get a run.

Three of the command figures

The dismounted cavalry packs are supplied with ten different figures and the command packs four different figures thus enabling you create great looking units.

The sergeant above is supplied with the command pack.
