As with the Whitworth rifle set, 21 bods and 3 guns per set. The Crew. A Tinsy bit of Flash needed removing. The bod yanking the fuse rope. The molded Version of the rope was too short and too thick so it got replaced with copper wire. Easy Job. Slice off plastic rope, drill hole, add wire. I...

Eight new additions to the Bodstonian Dragoons using the Zvezda Swedish Dragoons of Charles XII. The riders haven´t got the big cuffs that thier previous comrades have and the nags don´t have blanket rolls but both sets are similar enough to mix together. A couple of Close ups The whole...

The last addition to the Bodstonian dragoons bringing the numbers up to 16, two squads of eight. The bod is a combination of the Horse holder from the Zvezda Dragoons of Peter I set and the mounted pistol firing bod from the Zvezda Swedish Dragoons of Charles XII set. The Nag, who had it´s...

Again, as with the Zvezda Artillery of Peter the Great, this lot have been recruited into the Bodstonian ranks. Three new guns The whole battery*, including the Purple roses gun Team and a few extra conversions mixing bits from both Zvezda sets to bump up the numbers * I forgot to add...

The mobile section. In extremis, roads aren´t that common in Bodstonia, this lot can be used to supply a bit more firepower to any Bodstonian field expeditions. The gun limber. I know, two poor nags straining to pull the gun but at some Point I´ll get hold of a smaller "galloper" type of gun...

Oddly, this set Claims 11 poses on the boxart but...in reality, there´s 12!! Not only that..one of the poses shown on the boxart appears to be carrying some sort of standard..and, he aint included in the 12 poses I got in the box. The rat´s..Box says 12 but there´s only 11, Lizards, box says 11...

Messengers.? Do I really Need them? It might come to a Point where the games will require them but until then...Why not ? For the confederates and from the Strelets Confederate Command set, the bod representing , Major John Pelham. If...at any Point, the Project allows for horse artillery, he...

Nope, not a third set but some conversions swopping arms between both sets. As the plastic is slightly rubbery the swops are easy. Simply slice of the arm and pin to the new Body using fine steel wire. Any gaps filled with PVA Slingers got some shields........ ......from this pair who got the...

Again from RedBox and again on the Dark Alliance side, the set has 48 bods in 12 poses. Like the previous set, a winsy bit of Flash, middle hard cream plastic. I´ve painted the White Hand of Saruman on the Standard. I could have gone with the red eye of Sauron but I´d already painted the...

Redbox is really becoming one of my favourite producers of Bods. Thier War of the Roses Range is excellent and thier Fantasy range...is...well, superb. This little lot, on the Dark Alliance side, has 48 bods in 12 poses. A winsy bit of Flash, middle hard cream plastic. Armed and using...

A Change from ACW...a bit more Fantasy. It says on the box...12 poses but there were only 11 different poses in the box. After comparing each of the 11 actual poses to the 12 pictured on the boxart to find out which one is missing, I discovered one of the poses on the boxart is...

Originally a Mount from the Modern Mounted Amazons set which didn´t get used as I gave them Nags to ride. After sitting in the "to do" draw it´s been painted and based and will go off as a X-mas pressie to a 11 year old Girl who collects Unicorns. I mean, there´s two in the set and who needs TWO...

Another 4 Generals for the ACW Project. All from the Strelets Union General Staff (2) Chosen more or less at random, the pose being more a deciding factor than any particular personality from the set. Whose who, According to the boxart and PSR Abner Doubleday In Charge of the cavalry. I...

17th Tennessee Infantry Regiment. The officer. The bod on the far right. Surrendering or signalling to maintain/hold the line? Two brigades. A couple of Union General staff, the wounded from the various Strelets sets and a couple more scenery/Building bits and maybe some movement trays...

A break from bod painting... couple more bits for the ACW Project, another house and a covered Bridge. Both constructed using card from cereal boxes and a bit of wall paint. As with the other Buildings, durability and Close to the "look" rather than historical accuracy being the main...

The one Thing about painting Union troops...easy but a wee bit tiresome. Easy as it´s not a lot of effort due to the same colours for each bod but tiresome for the same reason. Oddly, they are all in step. Would they be in step when attacking ? Flag is the 11th Regiment Maine Volunteer...

The 11th Mississippi. 45 bods in 19 poses. One wounded and the usual Streltsi..so this time only 3 repeat poses needed including to make up the 20 required. Who´se been pilfering from the artillery clothing store? Another "pointing at ...what" ? Bod The poses are not too dissimilar to the...

The one Thing that Strelets really does well, is produce original bods that otherwise are only available in Metal. That, added to their recent new sculpting look and massive output, makes them, IMHO, presently, the leading Producer of 1/72nd bods. All from the Strelets set, Confederate General...
