when will the sculptors ever get this right!...It is obviously an 1812 space hopper while the troops are 1809!...I despair

While Fenton appears right, I believe you'll find that that the 1812 space hopper. which from my extensive research was manufactured in an orange dyed cow hide, is NOT the one pictured.....I'm almost certain that this IS the 1809 version which was produced in bright red.
It's simply down to the fact that the photographer hasn't compensated for the light source on his camera. :P ;) ;D

Phil's right, it is an 1809 Space Hopper specially adapted for the Men's Doubles.

Off the top of my slightly sunburnt head, we were waiting on a slightly different limber for those chaps, which I believe has now arrived at Pendraken HQ.

Leon,

Would it be possible to have a second rank lancer with sword and carbine please?   :)

These also arrived with this month's batch from the sculptor, so we'll soon have some handy personalities to add to the French range! 

We've got Napoleon, Marshall Ney and Davout:

I wouldn't feel right putting old Boney on the table unless I had a least a couple thousand models.

Does Ney come with several spare horses (he's my favourite psychotic Marshall)

No doubt Mr Harwood's as well given his liking for Gingers

Well, Davout is my favourite - but I'd need an expert tutorial on painting glasses in 10mm to make any sort of fist of it.

PS. However as this is not my period, I think this beautiful sculpt is safe my think fingers!
