They do look good. So glad I put the brakes on that project a while back. These look like great justification of starting up again.

Nice, look like they might be handy for various inter war, or even pre war projects too.

What has happened to the release of all the new WW1 Middle East sculpts?

Post by: Leon on 14 May 2017, 01:49:00 PM
There's not a lot of moulding going on while we're getting BKC sorted out so we're quite behind on all the releases.  I'm trying to get the Warband and Nap Brunswickers released in the next month and then we can move on to the WWI stuff in July.

Ok I am only asking since you are sculpting them. Could you modify some of the Turkish infantry for the Turkish War of Independence? All you would need to do is change the headgear to the felt cap. If it is easy/possible?

or like this

Just one code (infantry with command) would do. Pretty please with cherry on top :)

The WWI stuff was all completed months ago I'm afraid, so the designer has gone on to other areas now.  We'll see what we can do about getting something done in the future though.

Sounds like a job for....
TECHNO!
Title: Re: WWI Middle East sculpts!
Post by: Techno on 15 May 2017, 06:13:55 PM
Oh no, it doesn't.  ;)

Nah...if Leon DOES want them doing, and the other designer hasn't got the time, and doesn't mind.....I'll do 'em.
Depends on what Leon's got lined up for me after 'Korea'.

I just wish they'd finally realise that there's nothing that really needs investigating, Ian.

Sooner they've finished all the tests/scans/etc the happier I'll be.
Having said that......I can't complain about the care they've been taking of me....That's been superb......And if something 'iffy' HAD been found...............At least it would have been caught very early.

Doesn't help that I really don't like hospitals, or going down to the doctors'.....Which is where I'm going tomorrow morning for more blood tests.  =)

Cheers - Phil

Health before everything. Just take your time, let the docs do their thing (though always get second and third opinions). And may this process end fast and well for you!

Oh sorry, forgot to pass on the message. The Dark Lord appeared to me in a dream as a burning President Bush. This, of course, made it difficult to grasp his central message, but he said something to the effect of "go tell the sculptormataker after he's done with the Curry'ns to conjuremify some Busy-teens and whackadoodle some of them Amazing-onions in fool amour - and make sure they have massive shields" (he was quite clear on that). "Then, in the afternoon, have a little nap, and the exemplerminate some of them carrot armies, for the Achy-ones and the Hit-tights and the Egg-gipshuns."
