Pete:

Would you give us a heads-up when the weapons and head sets are up on the site? Or perhaps there's another site on which we can see them?

Thanks!

The head set and the weapon set will be on the website www.120mini.com as of Monday 16th May

That is nice. I like how you created the authentic look -droopy & baggy- of the fall front trousers.

The rigid framed Knapsack is the wrong type for that era. The rigid frame knapsacks did not start appearing in the British army until the 1820's, and the earliest known picture of this type; is that of a private of the 3rd Foot Guards by E. Hull, 1828.

The period correct type of Knapsack is that of the 1811 Pattern; which did not have a rigid frame. The 1811 Pattern resembled the soft, folded over double bag look of the U.S. Civil War double bag knapsacks. The painting 'The Defence of Hugoumont' by Denis Dighton, painted in 1815; depicts the Cold Stream Guards wearing the 1811 Pattern packs.

But, this is still a stellar looking figure, and I added it to my 'buy' list. Any chance of releasing this in a bust?
