OOOOH - I love Chota Sahib figures. Colour me excited

Nice display folks - a few pieces there I haven't seen before. Hopefully catch up at Salisbury next week (Groupies notwithstanding)
Cheers

That's great news re. the Chota Sahib figures. I've order kits from the Frome Model Centre in the past and they are already bookmarked as a good trader.

Cool displays Kevin!

Those gatherings are always loads of fun, especially when you're blessed with bustie groupies.....er bust groupies......er you know what I mean!

Just tried to fine Chota Sahib on their website but search came up with no result...presumably they haven't loaded up anything yet.

What, what, what ?.. Chota ?
Let's hope

Good afternoon, all just a quick update in the Chota Sahib range

We now have a website set up & Facebook links are below

We currently stand at over 90+ figures in the range information as we come across will be added to the website and pictures as well

If people require more information we can be contacted at sales@studiomodeldesigns.com

Further to my purchase of Charles I under the Studio Model Design banner, I'd like to confirm that this figure is not a Chota Sahib miniature.
This is the base that came with it:-
which clearly bears the name of 'A Stadden'.
I must admit, I didn't remember Charles I being part of the Chota Sahib range, but failed to look closely.
Sorry if misled anyone.

Cheers,
Andrew

Good evening Andrew,

This is 54mm Chota Sahib - all moulds went to a company called Sarum soldiers

Which later was transferred to us

Hope this helps

Afraid it doesn't.
While I cannot argue regarding Sarum Soldiers, the 'A Stadden' is Andrew C Stadden (sculptor).
I believe he either sculpted for Sarum or, some Stadden figures were sold to Sarum.
Either way, I don't believe the Charles I is a Chota Sahib miniature.
I have painted a number of Stadden and Chota Sahib figures and this has the look and feel of a Stadden (a nice figure in itself), rather than the neat and crisp look of a Chota Sahib.
The engraved name on the base is a clear indicator.
Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Andrew

This makes sense - I believe we could have a mix of both figures this would mean probably all English civil war figures was sculpted by Andrew

As far as I know Sarum did have the Chota Sahib range as well as their own range of figures so not all SarumSoldiers are Chota Sahib figures.

Thank you all this helps

We do know that Sarum soldiers had two ranges they had a gloss toy soldier range as well

The figurines we purchased was all bagged in Sarum soldier bags - which some have reference to Chota Sahib - as we dig into the range we will find which figures these are - I was told there was 450+ figures in the original range

A collector has listed the Chota some with both refrence Chotte and Sarum
Hope this can help you to sort off
The one signed A Stadden were sculpted on commission for Sarum .
