ID help wanted

Post by Buff Redux »

A former member of our club has passed away and one of the other chaps has been left a lot of his stuff. None of us are experts in 15mm WSS so can anyone here help ID these.

Image
The figures in this pic are mostly Dixon: the cavalry on the left, the nearest infantry charging; the advancing infantry towards the top end look like Minifigs; not sure about the "stretching" horses in the centre/right foreground. Infantry at the far end are definitely British from the flags; hard to tell what the rest are.

Image
The big guns and gunners in the foreground are definitely Dixon; there's what looks like some Roundway foot in the centre, and I'm not sure about the limbers and guns at the back - might be Hallmark/Magister Militum.

Image
The marching pose musketeers look like Roundway or Minifigs (Dixon marching foot are quite distinctive); the pike could be anyone. The cavalry looks like a mix of Dixon and Roundway, but it's hard to tell at this distance. Most of the infantry are French; again, not clear what the cavalry is supposed to be.

That's about the best I can do from those shots. If you want to PM me some close-ups I can do better.

Thanks a lot, I may not get a decent look at them for a while but I'll see if Aiden can offer any more details.
