During my recent visit to Len Cooksey of Ivanhoe Figures I mentioned that, inspired by the Padre's Naval Brigade I was thinking of assembling one of my own. At this, Len showed me the latest of his own range of resin figures which just happens to be a Victorian sailor!

The painted sample figure. |

He is rather a purposeful looking chap. In size he is completely compatible with the plastic figures I have (HAT, A Call to Arms, Armies in Plastic) |

The 'raw' resin figures. The chap on the left has had most of the (small amount of) flash removed. The figure on the right was removed from the mould by your humble correspondent - the resin was still slightly warm when I got him home! |

So how big of a naval unit are we talking about here Tim?

So far it's only a vague idea, but I'm thinking two 20-figure battalions, a couple of guns (Britains 4.7s naturally) and some hangers-on.
I know you ....there will be a gunboat...;-)

That's the thing about Navies - they do like boats.
