I agree with Steve & Rob on comments regarding €30 postage and having to purchase a bundle as opposed to been able to select individual busts or figures. Not only do you have to pay up front (November) but have to wait until April next year for delivery. whilst I do not doubt the quality of...

Hi Nap. First time I have seen this image but it’s great to know I got somewhere close to a great artist. Many thanks to you for looking this up. I’m thinking of the Culpepper Militia for a future project but have yet to look them up. Meanwhile SWIMBO has me doing a different type of painting...

Thank you for your kind words Simon. Really enjoyable build. Not too complicated. Peter.

Hi Nap. Thanks for your kind words. Yes oils over acrylic. Peter.

I have recently completed these two AWI busts by TFB. I painted them in oils over acrylics. The busts themselves are sculpted by Offo and have great detail and require very minimal cleanup. Although the bodies are generic they can be painted in a multitude of different regiments. Four different...

If you’re like me, I loose hours of sleep worrying about what figures I don’t want to buy will be released next knowing SWIMBO just won’t understand

Nap, I have been onto the guys to consider producing this as a bust. I think it will be a great complimentary range to there AWI in American history.

Great sculpting by Offo & casting by TFB. This is turning out to be a fantastic range of AWI busts. Wonder what is next in the pipeline?

Martin. Your views on Ian Burton in particular are quite strong also TFB you have now tarred with the same brush and accusing them of been liars. Strong stuff indeed. However there is one thing missing in all of your rhetoric, where are the complaints from the sculptors who haven’t been paid for...
