Nice work, Mark. It's a pity Mike never got the time to do the S-L-B Carabiniers. We'd talked about it but he was busy with Ma.K stuff and 1/56 WWII. They'd stand out on a table.
If "The System" is the answer, who asked such a bloody stupid question?

While a nice idea, I think that with a total book strength of 87 men they'd be a bit redundant. Nice for the skirmish gamers and 'imaginations' crowd though. :thumbs:

Out of interest, with Mike's tragic passing, is there anyone else sculpting quality 15mm figures for Eureka these days?

It's been an overly busy year for funerals again- former brother-in-law but good mate (ex RAN, but still a good bloke), the last of Dad's siblings and a cousin (fck off for a while, Norm, it's getting a bit much!). But Mike's passing hit hard, the silly Pommy bastard.

Nic's doing a few Eureka 15/18mm ranges, Mark. Alan Marsh, Paul Clarke and Kosta Heristanidis (had to look up his surname spelling) are three of his sculptors. Alan does 15/18mm, I think Paul also does some, and Kosta does 28mm+- if I remember correctly. Alan's quite a good sculptor, as his ECW, WSS (new) and Sumerians show (I think he did them, but it could be Paul). Nic usually does Salute and carries a fair sampling of his ranges for drooling over. The bugger also puts in samples of new ranges in mail orders, to boost temptation levels. Nic would be able to tell you, especially if you bribed him with a pint of something Yorkish at Salute.

I know there were only 87 Crabs. That doesn't mean I couldn't have raised a 28-figure unit of them.
