I like that thought. Whiffs of The Scarlett Pimp. Ernell, I should add.

'Hermes' are your chaps. Just had an Amazon delivery of two aerosol paints delivered by them.

Gaynor has that.

I'll have a check with them and see. I know when we were doing the Post Our Paint campaign that Hermes were using Royal Mail at stages of their routes so any RM restrictions still applied to them. Hopefully that's not still the case!

And some more releases now:

These were previewed a short while ago and we've got them into production moulds now, so here they are! We've revamped the Jagers and Grenzers for our 1860 Austrians, which brings that whole range up to par now with our recent sculpts.

1860's Austrians - https://pendraken.co.uk/19th-century/eu ... -austrian/
AU3 Jagers, inc. command (30) £4.95
...
AU12 Grenzers, inc. command (30) £4.95


And the pics:

AU3 - Jagers



AU12 - Grenzers

We've got another batch of new releases ready now, with a few assorted goodies for the LoA and WSS periods. First up Clib's done some conversion work to change the previous LoA command into tricorns, suitable for the latter end of the Augsburg period through into the WSS. He's also put some fur hats on the dragoons, just in time to go with the new dragoon flags we've received from Sandinista! Thanks to both for their work on these.

Bringing up the rear, we've replaced the Marlburian dismounted dragoon sculpts and added a horse holder set for them as well.

LOA38 Dismounted Command group, tricorn (3 figures + 1 horse) £1.00

(The eagle-eyed among you will have noticed the jump in flag codes from 219 to 224, which is due to the GNW flags we released a couple of months ago. That'll annoy my OCD for years to come...!)

Those WSS chaps are really very splendid.

They all, are. If I was starting our today, I'd just do 10mm, but I just squeeze out a tear for what might have been and go back to COTOTS. I had a mighty SYW victory with some of your Prussians last weekend Leon - stupendo!

Excellent, good to hear the troops are doing their jobs!

The Austrians put up a fine fight, but couldn't quite match the Prussian drill.
