I agree with you about the scale, and the "54mm" are indeed giants. Although I think the 45mm foot wouldn't look too out of place with a 54mm project provided the bases were shimmed a bit and the figures kept in their own units. The Peipp civilians are actually quite delightful.<br /><br />I look forward to seeing what you make of them and regards,<br />SteveCorporal_Trimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00376387688651637091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1482289045943530612.post-39405331255317710472013-03-31T16:36:47.761-07:002013-03-31T16:36:47.761-07:00A very useful post thanks, and what stunning paint...A very useful post thanks, and what stunning painting on your blog. I purchased some Peipp 54mm generals for my ECW project but they are just too huge (one I can use as Anthony Payne, the last Cornish giant who fought at Lansdown in 1643). I am seeking 54mm 18th century civilians and cavalry, the Peipp 45mm foot seem rather small but the cavalry will be useful.Springinsfeldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14088330681756351208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1482289045943530612.post-79445215481540742762012-11-02T18:19:13.117-07:002012-11-02T18:19:13.117-07:00You're quite welcome, Uncle Toby.

Ross, I s...Thanks gentlemen, for your condolences.<br /><br />Ross, I see what you're driving at. I think Peipp and Meisterzinn are something of a stylistic mismatch, the bulkiness of the Peipps not working in favor of mixed formations. They look like big beer-drinking, schnitzel-eating Germans and the horses apparently haven't refused any feedbags either. <br /><br />However, the Peipp generals are plentiful and excellent. I think using them based individually as command figures for formations of Meisterzinn wouldn't look too bad. But I really think the Peipps could be used even more effectively with 54mm troops. <br /><br />Regards,<br />SteveCorporal_Trimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00376387688651637091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1482289045943530612.post-7255884128956941142012-08-08T15:15:56.110-07:002012-08-08T15:15:56.110-07:00Also very sorry for you loss.

I once placed one of the officers that I converted into a Highlander beside a Herald Gordon Highlander and they didn't seem all that far off.Ross Mac rmacfa@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04053555991679802013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1482289045943530612.post-79520333876520174352012-08-08T11:36:13.955-07:002012-08-08T11:36:13.955-07:00My sympathy for your family's loss, sir . . . ...My sympathy for your family's loss, sir . . . and welcome back to the blogosphere.<br /><br /><br />-- JeffBluebear Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05171345165563779232noreply@blogger.com
