Still stricken by the “Scottish plague” contracted on the trip to Carronade in May, I have at last got round to writing the brief for the Prussian fusiliers for the sculptor. There will be only two variants of fusiliers, A (Swedish cuffs, no collar, no lapels) and C (Swedish cuffs, collar, plain lapels) as this combination covers the majority of regiments. In time the variant with collar and no lapels may emerge, but it’s not a pressing concern.
The fusiliers are probably my favourite figures in the Prussian infantry line-up, so I’m looking forward to seeing what the sculptor does with them.
I also have sent the horse blanks off for changes and to produce variant poses, prior to producing the Prussian cavalry.
As far as moulds go, I still have to make production moulds for the B and C variants of grenadiers. Production moulds for Helion’s 1866 Prussian uhlans and some master moulds for Eagle Figures have been occupying the vulcanizer of late, and my Prussian grenadiers have been biding their time.
