Waterloo1815 - Roger's Rangers

Posted by Peter on 02 Apr 2025, 19:54

These figures were lying way to long in a box unpainted. I've got one sprue of these from a swap with a friend. When I started on them I saw two figures with snow shoes and the other eight without. So I based two groups on gras and the others in the snow.

They have come out very well. They cry to be pitted against some hideously* painted Iroquois.

* just in case your English makes you think I'm being insulting, in this case, "hideously" means "scary" & was traditionally used to describe Indian warpaint.

Agree totally with Donald. Had totally forgot that these existed! But my memory say that they are a little bigger than the ordinary 1/72. But maybe Italeri's natives can put up a fight?

You have done a great paintjob on these rare and original Waterloo 1815 figures, Peter, although they have never been among my purchase targets, mainly because of their large size, as Gunnar has rightly pointed out. :mrgreen:

Very nice work.

PSR slated them but I had a look for their conversion potential.

Best wishes,

Chris
