Don’t think so, but that was from some uncredited online articles 20 years ago so maybe. The only definite credit I recall is EJW Barber.

Just as informative but not so pretty John.

Sounds like they could make purple since the beginning of civilization.

Terrain. I’m on a terrain drive, a few more sections of river, three more houses and all my terrain is complete. Then it’s back to figures

Here's a Polish Chasseur a Cheval eagle-bearer I've converted from a trumpeter, with the addition of some brass wire and a Polish Eagle cut from an old Battle Honours Polish infantryman (also sculpted by Tony Barton in his pre-AB days):

The eagle looks a tad uncomfortable, but I suppose you couldn't perch it on your shoulder, it'd rip all the lace off.

The chap on foot is obviously out on a night in the town and he will have the girls queueing up for a bit of that.

That's why eagles always stand with their wings out like that when you see them on standards - it's a natural reflex reaction to having a pole shoved up their arse.
