Hello folks,
I am experimenting with a new scale for me, these 28mm figures are from Perry miniatures.
I love the details and poses on these, too bad they are not 40mm.
I will start with an officer and standard bearer of the Armagnac Regiment, this regiment took part in the expedition to Savannah which ended up in an almost failure.
I am.planning to use a single base of 12x12 to depict one of the encounters with the Brits, i will include more regiments along the way but just working on these 2 to test the waters.
I am still working on my Yorktown diorama, so this will be a long project to be completed in the future.
Cheers

WOW 28mm Mate.
Good Luck and hope that you enjoy this new venture.
Cheers,
Keith

Really impressed with the detail and shading on such a small scale, impressive project.

Very cool figs.

Great! Another step towards 30mm flats.

I had a feeling the Perry AWI French would eventually seduce you! Your painting style should be very compatable with these gems, and you already are familiar with the uniforms. I see another stellar project in the making, Daniel!

Thanks mate!.
I hope there was rhese same figures in 40mm, i would be thrown out of my house hahhaa

Thanks Graham, i am glad you like it.
Regards

Hey Colin thanks my friend.
Glad to see you here.
Regards

Haha, that is always a possibility, the problem is i wouldn't even paint as good as you do those flats Roger.
Best regards

You are absolutely right Don, i was contemplating those Perry French figs for quite a while, and finally i decided to give it a try.
Like i was mention it before, i wish perry had these Frenchies of the AWI in 40mm, i'll be the happies man alive.
I am also thinking of adding Eureka figs from the early French Revo. To these project.,i will have to order few to test the size.
Glad to see you here, i have not seen you on facebook lately.
Hope all is well.
Best regards

This is a great size for diorama purposes and sculptors are doing a much better job making well porportioned figures compared to the figures of the past.I think if your eyes hold up you may even prefer them over the 40's (which I doubt.).Good luck and will keep my eyes on this too.
Mark

Thanks Mark!.
I think the 40mm size it is better for Historical display when you want to create a diorama with several figures since these 28mm are kinda small and hard to see details as much as the bigger scales.
I hope the 40mm ranges will continue to grow on the miniature market.
Best regards

Progress report:
Finished the faces and hair, lapels and will move onto the completion of the coat next.
Cheers
