Finally: An Update

The summer seems to have flown by and I've had no chance to devote any time to the Little Wars Revisited project, not even managing to spend any time painting. Now, I have managed to get some new castings into moulds.

There are a number of new heads and arms and bodies which enable to now produce the following castings - examples here are very quickly stuck together to get an idea of all the possibilities:

LINE INFANTRY

These are a Standard Bearer, Infantry trooper and Officer.

FUSILIERS

Again: Standard, Officer and Trooper.

RIFLE BRIGADE

Trooper and Officer

GRENADIER GUARD


guard-standard

A new Standard Bearer to go with the existing trooper and officer.

ARTILLERYMEN

Artillery crew in Shirtsleeve order for some variation - a Home Service Artillery head for these will follow as well.

I have also had the horse blank for the cavalry and the first cavalry are currently being sculpted. The horse looks like this:

This lot gives me everything I need for the infantry side of Army Red so I am hoping to get on with production moulds and painting in order to get the units done by the end of the year if possible.
