A lovely new batch of Cossacks is just in - these are very nice!

Thanks for putting them up Simon

It would have been rude not to, Martin 

This is one of those ranges I just want to buy because I like the figures so much - they do look wonderful.

I'm looking forward to seeing some painted up - I think that they would respond well to the style of the artist-formerly-known-as-Lurkio, with contrast paints and washes?

I will go back and make the Cossacks  brilliant in PBI.
A special "moustache" rule that allows Cossacks to laugh in the face of danger and ignore all morale/moral tests?

Agree some great sculpts in this range. What else is to come??

I think they should fail all morals tests - as should most RCW participants.

They seem to have done well from a morale perspective, though. Big black flags help?

A Cossack host is definitely on my wishlist...

More stealthy Cossacks I see - light mortar and SMGs. They look as though they would be a joy to paint - nice clear straps and not much other detail to have to bother with! Should be great with a wash or contrast paints?

Also a sneaky desert domes building and walled courtyard - very nice!

It's great to see that the 3 Musketeers have now arrived. I'm looking forward to messing around with replacing their rapiers with wire, and seeing how far I can bend their arms to vary the poses. Maybe some alternative heads might come along in due course?

The ACW mule-hauled wagons are also up and ready for sale.

Simon you will find needles a better substitute for the rapiers.

[Colonel Kilgore]

I use nickel silver wire, Les. Why do you think this won't work?

Today it appears to be not only Macedonian hypaspists but also advance notice of other Macedonians in the offing

I think Martin is still missing the elephants and the bolt-throwing scythed chariots pulled by flaming pigs.

Just started doing some Macedonian sculpting. A lot of time getting ready and playing events this month.
