A picture is worth a thousand words… so be happy you’ll be spared my prose today! 54mm!

It has been a long time, but finally decided to show what craftsmanship can do… Above a badly need of repair set… below the awesome concept and execution. 54mm with a vengeance!… Wish I had this level of “ability” in my fingers. Enjoy.

Somewhere else in this collection of posts I have already mentioned his great contribution to Toy Soldier literature (specially Britain’s), and still consider his book COLLECTING TOY SOLDIERS “the” reference book. Of course he advises Auctions and has a job connected with buying and selling items… but this is not here not there. He has (still) a fantastic collection (much revised and streamlined if you know what I mean). So he deserves a Post of his own. Enjoy.
Tony Dilley’s Royal Scots in 54mm

You know I am a fan (first the father then the son).
Notoriously difficult tartan… but also the white lace.
Look at the soldier looking sideways to keep alignement!… a very nice touch!
So…
Enjoy!

It’s been a while…
And here it is… the last published pics on Facebook.
The details are superb, cuffs, chevrons, and horse attelage… for once matt finish is to the point!
Enjoy!
A “NEW” Tony Dilley’s work

Should have said new masterpiece!… really his work is a permanent source of inspiration for everyone to care to look.
By the way… mounted figures in the background would be one day in the near future converted too… for our pleasure…
Enjoy!

They do not come better than this in matt finish. Toy Soldiers bordering or tiptoeing the thin line between them and Military Modeling.
Awfully good if you ask me. Enjoy
Tony Dilley’s Cavalry

Sorry I forgot to include the mounted soldiers on last day post… here they are… and truly impressive too… sometimes I complain to my wife about the lack of market in ANDORRA concerning Toy Soldiers… probably knowing myself this is probably for the better!… lol
Dilley’s Artwork (edited in 2026)

I originally posted those Dilley’s pics to pay respect to HRH Queen Elizabeth II (they seemed quite appropiated at the time). Now we moved on but the pics are still here because they are awesome works of art.
After all I was born in 1952 and she has always been there as a Queen (“THE” Queen in fact)… so it is part of my life too!
In 2026 I found a “new” pic that has been added at the end… Line Infantry SIMKIN times.
Outstanding models as usual… and never take this for granted…
