The long awaited return of REPLICA is here!… and this set from the owner is very similar (enhanced by a lot more of figures for the pic) to a commission from the National Army Museum (UK).
What else can I say?
Enjoy!

I had a collection of 54mm Dorset Soldiers (lead) but the numbers of it were indifferent (modulated on 8’s + officers)… now after an additions bit (sharks frenzy feeding) I have 9 Companies of 12 men adapted to A GENTLEMAN’S WAR set of rules (I use modified if you please).
So yesterday I paraded the force to organize properly. Two of the Co’s are mule mounted (see pics), there are two machine guns, a Battery of Artillery, an Heliograph attached to HQ/Command and some Mounted Officers and ADC’s.
It was fun.
Enjoy!

Nothing surprise me a lot nowadays… but sometimes… sometimes… sometimes I am shocked by sheer quality!… What a masterful work!
On the other hand another surprise was the announcement of a Toy Soldiers’s Collection for sale (Mr. Luc Lezun) using www.mytoysoldiersandme.com in Facebook… just remember all transactions are a private agreement between gentlemen and the site has been created only for pleasure and no commercial objectives at all. Simply beware as usual. Thought better to clarify… wish I could buy them all! The use of mirrors on the back of the cabinets where the Collection for sale is displayed “doubles” the effect of quantity… anyone can see that… but better mention to be absolutely clear!

Military Bands have always been a very collectable category as far as I know… Toy Soldiers need music to march on!
Bands standing instead of marching, or even seated are a special variant of the subject. See three examples of a serious collector.

A tasteful subject… a mini diorama based on a brilliant idea (and best of show in 2015 at EURO-MILITAIRE).
A pic says more than a thousand words.

Not much time today, but I did see on facebook this fabulous example of modeling (do not know scale) but fans will recognize the Fort from the film MARCH OR DIE with Gene Hackman and Terence Hill (also la Deneuve!)… very accurate I guess.
Enjoy!

I have to be more careful and note the name of the artist… even if sometimes they are posted in Facebook without reference… not that was the case with this pic I simply did not record it! Quite diorama like…
Enjoy!

It was not easy to transport this part of my 54mm collection but it was worth the effort believe me!
After all I am going to play one against the other, and game them alone too (one at a time) depending on scenarios.
Enjoy!

How the glory fades with time… for nearly two centuries Spanish Infantry was the undisputed ruler of the European battlefields… not that many remember that at all mind…
Economical ruin, lack of manpower, corruption… you name it… the conclusion of all Empires…
Excellent pic nonetheless.
Enjoy!
