I haven't had any complaints about them yet. They are always giving my Prussians a hard time, so they earned the right to fight in the SYW.Der Alte Fritzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01578422757511400566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-5689233386534612222008-01-23T15:49:00.000-06:002008-01-23T15:49:00.000-06:00Lovely figures!

I really like seeing figures that look like real people. They are the best looking figures on the market by far. I have a unit of Prussians and plan to include a lot of your Austrians in my army in the future.<BR/><BR/>Nigel: I will see if I can find the e-mail (at my work PC) for the gentleman in France who has the Capitulations range. I believe that his name is Christophe Duquet. Even though his web site is down, he was still taking orders a year or so ago. He is just hard to reach.<BR/><BR/>Alan: I will do more comparative pictures in the future now that I'm starting to figure out how to use the macro (close up) mode on my camera. I probably have 4 or 5 pictures that don't turn out for everyone that is good.Der Alte Fritzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01578422757511400566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-38453109596838511542008-01-23T05:37:00.000-06:002008-01-23T05:37:00.000-06:00Morning Jim,Amazing!
