While on the subject of the American War of Independence I thought I'd draw attention to the range of figures by the Perry twins. They sculpt historical figures as a labour of love (their day job is with Games Workshop producing fantasy) and when they get the bit between the teeth of a certain period they really go to town on it.

These Hessians are particularly well animated showing the stiff legged gait of 18th century soldiers. Check out their artillery and limbers and their native warriors - all are works of historical art. Let's hope they produce some French troops...
