Big and solid, with heaps of detail. Elite Austrian artillery were amongst the first 25mm figures I ever collected - always have a soft spot for 'em - died by their guns very well too! <br /><br />Great guns Chris!<br /><br />Cheers,<br /> DocDoc Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12454394616689797734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5486634797266444464.post-66916622368570807382010-03-21T11:24:17.418+00:002010-03-21T11:24:17.418+00:00Amazing progress to paint that fast and keep the q...Amazing progress to paint that fast and keep the quality at an exceptional level.

I suspect it is going to look quite impressive. I like the look of Elite figures in mass, I presume the cavalry will be the same.<br /><br />Johnjohn de terre neuvehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03898285039988448895noreply@blogger.com
