Showcase: 14th Dragoons and Lord Cumberland

Here's a little detour into the middle of the 18th century. More exactly the Jacobite Uprising in 1745. This is a small unit of the 14th Dragoons, along with Lord Cumberland (and his personal drummer).

These 28mm figures are by Flags of War. Obviously known for producing fine, fine paper flags for wargamers, but they also produce a range of 28mm figures specifically for this conflict. Which is something I appreciate a lot.

All the better that these figures are really, really pretty and excellently cast. Tip top quality and certainly worth a look. 

The Cumberland figure is by Warlord Games and comes with two hand options - a staff or a big glass of brandy. I was told to use the former on this figure. Still, he cuts an impressive figure.

I wasn't allowed to base these chaps, but tried to circumvent that by taking the above scenic shots. Which involved a LOT of figures falling over and me cursing a lot. :-P Hope you like the figures!
