Some touching up and rebasing sees some Italeri Highlanders (always thought that these figures looked a bit odd) and another ESCI Royal Horse Artillery gun and crew. These will now join the growing British plastic army:
I had a couple of the Esci artillery boxes, they were a very nice set, cracking work on them. The Italeri Highlanders I have not seen before, pretty static but decent looking figures and they look good ranked up, nice work on them.
Thanks for your comment. You know, I have never noticed the ESCI coat tails before, but you are quite right. I will never look at ESCI RHA figures in the same light again.
I can't see anything wrong with the Italeri highlanders, it might just be the formal pose that's unusual, most companies have their highlanders doing something a little more dynamic.
Thanks for your comment Rob. I probably should have been more clear; these guys are not too bad, but in the set overall there are some strange figures. I particularly like the standard bearers.

ReplyDeleteI've never been entirely convinced by any of the usual "Highlanders" sets; but the RHA with coat tails is *really* annoying ...
