New figures

 Received the first castings from Griffin of some new pieces, first there are the Ranger conversions in caps



I have also completed some conversions to the skirmishing militia and the marching militia, the new marching variants will be added to the current marching pack to provide 6 variants.


Finally the repaired Jaeger officer is completed, a marching Saxon NCO and John Dougan has completed a marching Garde Francaise 


All of these should be in the web shop before Christmas.
Can I thank you all once again for your support in these difficult and uncertain times.
Keep safe and seasons greetings to you all

Christmas / Lockdown offer

Since we’re all faced with another lockdown I’ve decided to bring forward the Christmas discount offer.

So until the 5th December there will be a 15% discount on orders over £30, ( it excludes unit packs )

Just enter Christmas20 in the coupon section on checkout

Just to be annoying the website will be down for a while today as some maintenance work is carried out to resolve a software issue.

Any questions etc. Just get in touch. 

The Rangers in caps have been sent to Griffin for casting alongside a few more civilian conversions so hopefully they will be in the shop by the end of the month. There is a delay as Griffin are working 7 days a week to keep up with demand! 

Keep safe

Morgan’s Rifles and issues with Mailchimp

 This weeks update is that I hope to receive Morgan’s Rifles for the Fife and Drum range next week, 8 figures sold as a set, they should be in the shop over the next couple of days.





I also tried to send a newsletter out to everyone however almost 400 bounced!! Bearing in mind I use a standard template I created then this came as a bit of a shock so something has happened along the line which now makes my postings not acceptable. 

As I’m not great on the technology front this may take a while to sort out so apologies to those of you who didn’t receive and update !!

More news next week.

More new greens

 Somehow I managed to post this entry on my Scotia Albion blog first hey ho!

Anyway Richard has sent me images of the new greens heading my way, the main focus was on the civilians so we have civilians/ militia marching and skirmishing, some doughty female homesteaders fighting and as a slight diversion French Fusiliers and Grenadiers in turn back coats charging.








Pre releases should be available in around 6 weeks

Lots of new stuff

I’m pleased to say that I’ve received the first casts of phase 2 of the Saxons, I’m very happy. I have a little work to do on the marching NCO but otherwise the first packs of these figures will appear in the shop over the next few days. Whilst the production moulds get made.
The Uhlans unfortunately don’t come with the lances I can’t get the 50mm spears at trade any more unfortunately.

















In addition I got some metal test casts of the 3D renders I’d had done. The Hungarian musketeer and grenadier and the Prussian Jaegers, unfortunately the Jaegers officer jaw was stretched and he looks quite ghoulish but I can make it right quite easily. The Jaegers I will most probably sell has a limited run. The Hungarians I’m not decided.



Finally a while ago John Dougan made some oarsmen to be used in a future publication by Charles Grant on the ongoing war between the VFS and the Duchy of Lorraine, I’ve been asked on one of the forums to make them available so I will 😂

Rangers and Provincials

Well still trying to keep the range moving even though at the moment there is no mould making taking place.
I am pleased to say that Richard Ansell is still working and here you can see his latest 'greens' for the range.
Provincial infantry and Rangers together with a sprue of heads for conversions.
Can't say when they will hit production but I'm really looking forward to getting them
