They'll match up well against EB's 20mm.

I'm sure I've seen this figure - may even have some of them, I'll look - as it used to be part of the photo catalogue on the Fighting 15s site; however, it has now been removed and there appears to no longer be artillery on the British Peninsula listings on the Eureka (Oz) site.HMS Priapus wrote: ↑Tue Dec 11, 2018 4:11 pm Also, if anyone has a line on the figure to the very far right, pulling on the rope, it'd be greatly appreciated. Rob at Eureka USA tells my he's never been produced. Which was disappointing to discover after I'd already assembled and based the crews running up the guns in a very particular way...

Yea!! The bricole meme lives on!
Baron - if you’re able to find a few spares, I’d jump at the chance to acquire them from you.

And VB, your 28mm Napoleonics are enviable. I need to retire soon so I can start this period again in that scale.
Also, most of my Russians, like the Cossack artillery, with the exception of the jaegers are old school OG. Sometime after the original sculptor (who also did their ACW) completed the French and Russians, and a few Austrian codes, he died in a car crash. So, there's your differentiating moment for the change in character of that range, FYI. The newer guy seems to be responsible for the era of "Hey, Steve" poses that the later sculpts are often derided for.

I think the worst thing about OG are the current horses
