Oi! knock it off guys, and try to keep this thread on topic.
Thanks.
V.

sorry...

Yes sorry

Very good stuff indeed! I need some of those highland conversions!

I would be very interested to see some Mordian stuff turn up, I should never have looked at this thread I think its going to cost me!

Hi Vic,

Any word on captain caine being cast up?

Funny you should ask, the masters went off to have the production mould made this week. It will depend how long it takes to get the next mould made, and assuming the results are good, at best I would have Caine and a few other new bits available by the end of next week, fingers crossed.

Hey Orinoco, just been checking out your blog, the Praetorians are sweet! Like the war Oliphant.

Oh thanks very much I've been working on some valks and some converted storm troopers recently, I'll send you an updated link when they're done.

Got my order and they look great, the piper is a super sculpt I have to say and nice job on the casting must have been difficult that one.

everything was to your usual high standard,looking forward to building the piper for sure great stuff.

I really have to thank you Victoria, Brodie helmet heads in the right scale are surprisingly rare to find!

Certainly will place an order after the Victorian legs are out, if anything just to create a Command Squad.

What are people thinking of using the Bagpiper as? Did plan one for my IG army but as a standard bearer since in my head they're more likely to hear the pipes rather than turn round in the middle of combat to look at a flag.

I am faintly contemplating picking up a bagpiper to use as a medic in my Ardiadna army for Infinity, since the fluff is that the pipers are also the doctors...

My will be the musician in the command group ( obvious I know ) but I like the standard approach and makes sense.

Very nice kits. I'm tempted by the rough riders but would be more tempted if you packaged them like the penal troopers i.e available as a set of 10 legs/arms with 9 regular torsos/pith heads and an officer torso/officer head, as at the moment you end up with a couple of spare heads and torsos to make a unit of 10.

Dependant on whether or not you like/ use Facebook, Victoria is currently asking for input as to what people would like to see from a Highland Guard Command Squad, ie sculpted banner, plain banner, what headgear and so on. I assume as a regular visitor to this site she will accept comments here.

In a moment of weakness I've suggested a 28mm heroic scale Westie as a mascot..but that's just me!

I've thought about using him as an officer of the fleet for a laugh. I'll make up some story about how bad he is at bagpipes and how the commander has him play over the enemy radio frequencies to annoy them

Does this answer your question they don't like the rain

How a bout a compromise one of each ….. like the whiskey label

We must be old to remember Black and White whiskey but one of each...I'll go for that.

Not that old I was only a we nipper when that was still around, but agree one of each

You two are going to get us yelled at again for going OT!

OT:
I personally don't Facespace or do any other social media crap.
Woul it be possible for vic to post poll questions like that on here?
I personally like the current set she has with unit mix-n-match.
Meaning make seperate Command/Sgt torsos and make seperate
Command/Sgt head swaps. That way noone is pigeon holed by buying
one set or the other, and not having an option with future releases.
Just my $.02.

Yes back on topic I was referring to the HQ set with mascot o sorry mascots.

I dont do facebook either but I have been over and read the feedback and there is some good ideas their, but I agree we should have the same questions here as well.

Here you go then, this is what I wrote on Facebook'
"Hi, I'm looking at doing a command group for the Highlanders, I already have the Piper. I will also work on conversion sets for a Commander and Standard Bearer. Let me know your thoughts on what you would like to see in a Highland Guard command set; Champion with Claymore? Gas masks? Plain banner pole? Balmoral caps? all suggestions welcome.
Thanks,
V"

Like it says, ant thoughts appreciated. Thanks, V

I think a Bodyguard with a Claymore would be a great idea.
I think keeping it 'as is' would be nice. Having just a command
or sgt specific torso set and head set would be the way to go.
You could make the Bodyguard, Officer and Standard torso set.
And a 5-6 head sprue with various heads. Then make a set for
each of the different helm/hat styles you're currently doing for the
different head sets.

That said, I would still love to get a Cpt. Cain one piece!

Thanks for reposting this for us "Socially challenged"!

Forgot to throw this out: seperate officer torsos would be a great way to
get some (tasteful) female options! Well and female heads would be needed
for the female torsos....
