It is very appreciated!<br />Personally I think the width of the bases is more important of the depth and should reflect the ground scale of the game. Similarly the man to figure ratio should be just a rule of thumb, you just cram as many figures you feel practical and fashionable and here I think you found the perfect compromise. <br />Keep up the great work!Ratmaulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11740218860672017972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-72385704359962184762020-07-30T00:33:36.268-05:002020-07-30T00:33:36.268-05:00The new style is a big improvement.

I came across while researching a diorama build of the assault on the Catholic Church in Leuthen by the ll and lll<br />Garde Bns. So much info on this blog. Glad to know how minded individuals are out there. If anyone has actually visited <br />Leuthen drop me a line at jlukens48@gmail.com. Desperate to know if church spire seen today existed or if Carl Roebling's paintings more accurate. <br />Jon Lukenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09670786903703616414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-3926541609319562372020-07-28T03:53:00.802-05:002020-07-28T03:53:00.802-05:00Very nice expertly sculpted, based and painted min...Very nice expertly sculpted, based and painted miniature.

The extra figures add much more depth and finish the unit off in a way that makes the older style look lacking. <br />Nice work.StuartInschhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02767926453730695701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-56945924591519794532020-07-26T13:53:12.025-05:002020-07-26T13:53:12.025-05:00Absolutely beautiful Jim,well done.Absolutely beautiful Jim,well done.Independentwargamesgrouphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07019172667119107650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-44182388485889313902020-07-26T11:02:10.535-05:002020-07-26T11:02:10.535-05:00Yes, the closer files do look better IMHO.Yes, the closer files do look better IMHO.Der Alte Fritzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01578422757511400566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-89027698228831763062020-07-26T11:01:12.830-05:002020-07-26T11:01:12.830-05:00I would rebase all of my original figures, but the...I would rebase all of my original figures, but they are super glued to wood bases and I can't break the bond between figure and base, using a variety of methods.<br /><br />I switched to white glue and wood bases a few years ago so going forward rebasing should be easier to do, However I think that I have settled on a basing system that I will use permanently.Der Alte Fritzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01578422757511400566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-42286453884567441512020-07-26T08:32:48.951-05:002020-07-26T08:32:48.951-05:00The look of the new basing system is "IT"...The look of the new basing system is "IT" in my view.<br /><br />Best Regards,<br /><br />StokesWSTKS-FM Worldwidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14173042438761572040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-75416330401865335682020-07-26T02:33:42.473-05:002020-07-26T02:33:42.473-05:00Love that new style... much more as I imagine th...Love that new style... much more as I imagine them to have been... almost shoulder to shoulder...Steve-the-Wargamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07077311120172727690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-698522947313271522020-07-26T01:37:58.022-05:002020-07-26T01:37:58.022-05:00Gorgeous unit, and I do like the new system...Gorgeous unit, and I do like the new system...Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08913029478686087197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-50338662109205864222020-07-26T01:17:24.124-05:002020-07-26T01:17:24.124-05:00Jim,
