Couldn't help myself, had to preview this chap -- he came out quite well! He's the officer model for our upcoming "15mm" (really 18mm) German infantry sets. These are being made to represent German-style foot in the first half of the war, until around Nordlingen.

Sculpted by Mike Broadbent. Coming soon! Thanks for looking.

very good

Are your figs compatible with Testudo big 18mm ?
Are you thinking at a NYW/Luis XIV range?
Regards
Errico

I have the Curassiers who fit nicely next to Testudo.

Thanks for the reply, but I'd like to know if also infantry is compatible?

The infantry are being made to be compatible with the cavalry, if that helps.

Sorry but I don't know about compatibility with other manufacturers' models.

Thanks! And what about a Nine Years War range?

Very nice. Roughly how long before the pikemen/musketeers are realeased? Also very keen on the reiters - worked out I need at least 36 of these to give me options

Cheers.......Geoff

I saw Pendraken but I'm looking for 18mm and Khurasan looks very nice.

Cheers for that Geoff. As a matter of fact, the infantry just completed the sculpting process! They look MAGNIFICENT, so true to the period images that I actually experienced a little chill when I opened the e-mail! Let's say two weeks to get to me from Australia, a month (?) to be cast, and two weeks to get painted. So two months, middle of June. Everything in this hobby takes forever, but due to the reception the Central European-style Kurassiere received, I'm trying to follow up with the German infantry blocks as soon as possible.

They will be sold in FoG size sets, like the Kurassiere. There will be a basic set of pike plus command, then another set of pike you can get to make the unit ET, then there will be three different sets of musketiers, which can be fielded on their own in entire units to suggest a newly raised regiment, or any of the three sets can be mixed and matched to suggest a veteran regiment that's gone through a series of uniform requisitions.

Each musket set has six different poses, so even if you use only one set, they will still look very lively. Three different shooting poses, three different loading poses, so that the bases don't have two of the same pose.

No plans for that, sorry.

Took receipt of the Imperial Infantry sculpts yesterday, very pleased indeed! And now off they go to the casters....
