1. The shock of the cost of a FoW boxed set was too much for Curruthers.
2. Something for the weekend Sir?
2. The X-Factor make-over was not going quite as well as had been hoped.

1. General swooning "Do you mean they have actually released the AWI Cavalry in Tarletons!"
2. And this is how we used to remove the sprue from Airfix figures in the old days

How about pendraken making little dioramas / vignetes / like those great examples above but in 10mm?.

Could be great to see some shots of 2 or 3 figures interacting or with little furniture. Just a idea.

I am sure it makes great adds on for dungeoner players, rpg players. Also for people who like static modellisim and for battle-gamers could make great dinamics camps (DBA players) or different command stands or objectives. Also for painters who want to paint something different as the warrior holding a spear or a rifle.

As in make them for display, or sell the figures necessary to make a diorama like that?

Shouldn't mention this - but Magister Millitum do some nice viginettes in their 10mm Ancients range - the Shapur mounting his horse on Valerian - OK got it to annoy Steve Oates who likes Romans. But similar stuff for most ranges would look good. Particularly sionce the Ancients ranges lack any mounted officers.

You can make them yourself with a little imagination and the existing ranges if you want mate :)

2.  "This tableau sponsored by the wig-makers guild of old Quebec"
