Mexican Indians
I continue to add whatever is available to my very mixed Yaqui/Apache warband for my Mexican Revolution project.
These are Newline Designs Sioux warriors with rifles LBH02
Maybe a bit under dressed for Mexico but hey ho they will mix in with the rest and at least they are armed with Winchester or Henry lever action carbines which is period.
Nicely done. The poses seem quite realistic and I reckon these will certainly be useful for gamers (whereas, for example, I find the “rifleman laying down shooting” pose to be of much less use).
ReplyDeleteCheers Geoff, yes the poses are quite nice, the only issue I have is the lack of clothes :) I`ve bought a couple of other sets from Newline which I thought were interesting for various projects, we`ll see how they come out.
DeleteNice work and nice figures too, I like Newline they have some great ranges.
ReplyDeleteNice guy too, very pleasant to talk too and his postal service was top class.

Hi Carl, thanks for the links. I was aware of the Waterloo1815 set, but have never actually found a box at a reasonable price to buy. There are a few figures from the old Atlantic set among my warband (Bought off Alan Hamilton in a joblot of western plastics). I`ve never seen that Strelets set before, totally new to me, I`ll keep an eye open next time I`m browsing Harrants website. Cheers mate :)
