BRITISH PENINSULA DRAGOON RENDERS
Here are the renders for the British Peninsula dragoons in bicorn.
This uniform was in use up to 1812 but probably carried on into 1813 due to sporadic supply issues with all armies during the Napoleonic wars (regulations and actual practice are very different even in today’s armies)
The differences in this uniform are the shoulder wings and horizontal bars of lace across the chest. They do not have the striped girdle under the sword belt and the cuffs are different. We have done two sets of arms for this set to represent the British regiments and the Kings German Legion (they have a pointed cuff with chevrons of lace above it)
We have also included two options for the sword scabbard buy itself or sword scabbard and sabretache. The sabretache was issued in 1812 to the heavy cavalry but again probably took a while to get to the troops, but is there for completeness.
The officer has a choice of bicorn or cylindrical shako with cords.
Late Roman / Romano British
Here are the first 4 sketches for the new Late Roman / Romano British infantry set.These first four are unarmoured infantry with an assortment of weapon arms that include, spear, Spatha, hand axe (Romano British could use axes and clubs as sidearms) and also throwing darts (Plumbata). There will be a few of these in various styles of being thrown. Some very interesting experiments on You Tube of how these were thrown, underhand, overhand and like a javelin.There will be numerous heads in this set with some different styles of helmet and some bare heads and suitably Romano British heads. We will add some Spangenhelms which will give this set more versatility again as Goths and Early Byzantines.There will be cloak options and some cloaks rolled up across the chest which will help give some of these figures a distinctly British flavour.Four more armoured figures and more heads, arms and equipment will also be on the main frame and there will be a 6 figure command frame so we should have a 60 figure set like the Vikings and Saxons.Stay up to date by signing up to our newsletter – https://www.victrixlimited.com/pages/sign-up

Ich kann diesem Konzept der abgetrennten Hände echt nicht viel abgewinnen. Das ist so ein Gefriemel beim Zusammenbau…
Ich find’s super, macht alles noch flexibler und spart etwas Umbauarbeit 🙂
Gibt es nicht mittlerweile 2 Plastikkits für late Romans? GB und WGA zumindest angekündigt. Das da immer in die gleiche Bresche geschlagen wird. Dabei geben sie ästhetisch aus meiner Sicht relativ wenig her…
Nunja. Wie man victrix kennt wird die Qualität stimmen
