The Douglas Miniatures 20mm Crimean War range. I have compiled a list of all of the known figures in the 20mm Crimean War range. Most of the moulds for these figures are now owned by John Cunningham who produces the figures for sales. Sadly not all of the moulds were preserved and John is eager to find masters of these figures (especially standard bearers). There are also some gaps. For example as far as is known no officer figures were produced for any of the cavalry units. The French have no officer or standard bearer and the same applies to Russian infantry in soft caps; only officers and standard bearers in helmets being produced.Furthermore, there is no figure for the Britsh 11th Hussars, which had the distinctive busby, but Douglas produced such a figure in their Napoleonic range which can be used as a substitute. Here is the list of known figures in the Crimea range:

  1. I started with Douglas Miniatures in the 1960s and have always liked them. I also like the minifigs figures, but as I already had a large number of Douglas troops I decided to stick to 20mm. I have kept my Minifigs Turks and French and I have used Minifigs conversions for some of my Sardinians.

    I still have a few British Minifigs, but I may replace them with Douglas if I can find them.
