Anyone have pictures of this range? Would love to see some of the figures?
Okay perhaps I did not ask nicely, probably rood to ask without contributing as well. I tried to attach some pictures to this post but it says the files are to large, I do have some photos on my blog:

I guess I will have to just buy a few of the Pacific War figures and take a look unless anyone else can give me idea first as to how these look?
With the new releases, and getting the prices sorted, I haven't had chance to get you any pics yet. I've got some display figures at work, so I'll get you a pic of those in the next couple of days.

They look
lovely - if that helps?! ;D
Im sure they look great, was just curious to see some pictures?
Doesn't the Pendraken flicker account have some photos of painted South American figures? You can access their flicker site from the main Pendraken site. I know I have seen some painted SA figures somewhere. And they did look good.

You're right! I was thinking we had some somewhere, and I found one in the Salute Show Report. It's not the best pic, but I'll get some more taken for you.

I think there's some more in the same display case, so I'll get some more taken.
thank you so much would love to see more pictures.
Right then, I've taken some more pics of the display figures we have:

If there is one subject upon which I now positively nothing in this world it is the wars in the South American Pacific.
But the figures are nice.
They almost look like they could do for French in the Maximillian Adventure
I suspect this is the most comprehensive range for this period anywhere in the world :P
Nice work on the bases too (by Nik I presume!)

Yep, all painted by Nik.
The figures themselves are mainly converted ACW figures and, as you say, can easily be used for Maximilian. I've got some lists of which figures can be used for this if anyone ever needs them.
Thank you so much more pictures then I could have asked for!!! A lot of color in those uniforms. I am going to place an order for some of these figures as well as some of the Indo-China French.
P.S.
Do you have any pictures of the French Indo China figures? Thanks again.

Not to hand, I'll see if I can get some taken. I think Nik might have some though... ;)
An advantage of doing this period would be you can avoid the "period bore" telling you that the piping on the cuffs is wrong.
It's a bit like those who thought the Falkland Islands were off the coast of Scotland. I am off to Google myself silly. I thought I had a fairly good grasp on history but clearly not!
What source material did you use for these?

It was actually a range put forward by a customer, which piqued Dave's interest. The customer had already done most of the research, and passed it on to us. A lot of the figures were conversions from the ACW range, and some from the FPW. Dave's away on holiday at the moment, but I'll ask him when he gets back.
