My birthday...

It t'was my birthday yesterday (27 again) and my boys bought me some great little figures...from TQD Castings (CP Models) from their 20mm (1/72) DARKEST AFRICA range, 1879 BRITISH INFANTRY...

To Mike and Jonathan - thank you gentlemen! Dad Love's you very much!!

I pack of OFFICER, NCO, SCOUT & RIFLEMEN etc & two packs of RIFLEMEN, in MIXED POSES...

They are wonderful figures - I've added them to my queue...but they may just jump a few places forwards...







Not sure if they are planning to add to the range...

Should I paint them as intended or should I convert them to 1882 Egyptian Campaign infantry...mmmmmm!!

Hello Keith...yes we all have lists and projects in the planning stages...hundreds and hundreds of them!

    Gorgeous figures Duncan. The poses have a nice old school quality to them. I think these chaps would look much smarter in scarlet tunics.

    Hey Duncan, it somehow makes me feel better knowing other ppl have the same problem. I like those figures a lot too, how do they scale with the esci 1:72 figs?

    A bit late Duncan, but never the less I wish you "Happy Birthday".

    Great looking bunch of figures, and I can't wait to see these painted!

    Greetings

    Thanks for your comments lads...27 (again)...!!

    @ Keith...the figures are a great match with ECSI...just as good too!

    Going to paint them as 1882 gentlemen (in Scarlet)
