Title: Elizabethan Range
Post by: Fenton on 28 December 2013, 08:32:18 PM
Can someone let me know if there is only one pose in each pack as the photo's show or is there 2 or 3 in each

The kids got me the Army pack for Xmas. Only had time for a quick look through it so far but I think EL4 has a couple of different figures. I think, (not 100% certain though), that EL2, 3, 5, 8 and 9 are single poses.

Thanks for that...I shall continue to think as I am looking to use them as a Fantasy army

I'm intending to use them for Warmaster Dogs of War units, will need to buy a few more separate packs though.

I've got the pike figures (also to make WM DoW units) and these ones come with 2 poses.

Phil's working on some conversions for a customer, so there may be something in there which would suit which would suit.

It's a rather large project Steve.
I wasn't absolutely sure if I was able to say anything about it.  ;)
Cheers - Phil.

It's very early stages at the moment, there's a customer wanting to put together some larger armies, so wants some more poses and types doing.  Phil's going to do some conversions and fresh figures (I think!) for him, which we will then be moulding up.  I don't have any more details than that at the moment, so it's very much a wait and see job.

Fair enough...I just think the range is nearly perfect for a Warmaster Dogs of War army

I think there'll be, at the very least, something in the 10+ codes I've got scheduled to do, that you'll find useful Steve.  ;)
Cheers - Phil.

A Pike unit for the Warmaster Dogs of War army list. A combination of EL4 and EL5 figures.

The pikes are rather delicate and SO easy to bend, so be careful.

One of the figures, not yet painted, has a flaw in the pike just above the hand. I doubt it would survive painting, much less any handling, worst luck. I'll probably clip the pike off and just have it as a figure pointing at something, not a big problem, even if it will leave one unit short of a pike!

Given the possibility of the Irish Nine Years War as a potential future project, I shall watch this with interest :).

Can I suggest that more of us post photos? It might go some way to making up for the lack of photos on the main website.

You could try drilling the hand out with a pin-vice, Andy, and slot in a length of piano-wire/plastic rod.
