Title: Indian mutiny....????
Post by: Jerrylee on 19 February 2012, 04:11:51 PM
Hello all,
I have a challenge for you, am thinking of doing the Indian mutiny in 10mm, was thinking of using Crimean Brits in pork pie hats, mahdist in turbans for mutineers, any other suggestions?

a) There's a number of figures in the Pacific War range, both Horse and Foot,  which are wearing Havelocks. They are ideal
b) Napoleonic Highlanders should be close enough for those that campaigned in India.
c) The Afghan Tribesmen from the NW FRontier range would be ideal for Mercenary Foot who fought in support of a number of the Indian Princes.

Unfortunately I can't imagine what you could use for Mutineers.
