Mosana Posted June 23, 2007 Author Posted June 23, 2007 (edited) Quick update. This is a torso representing the early French Revolutionary armies seen at battles such as Valmy and Arcola. It also comes with legs, which need to be resized separately: Legs template taken from Minifig Customization Network Edited June 23, 2007 by Mosana Quote

Capn Frank Posted July 1, 2007 Posted July 1, 2007 Hey Mosana, have you done a US Naval Captain from around 1812? Here's a thumb link, it's the guy on the left. Thanx, P Quote
Mosana Posted July 5, 2007 Author Posted July 5, 2007 Whoah 8-o That was fast! Thanx! P Well, it's just a previous 1812 body with a belt added, but thanks anyway! Quote
Jesper Posted July 6, 2007 Posted July 6, 2007 (edited) Now you've started to do the smaller countries - how about a danish infantery 1837-1864 (the one to the left): If you one day, have to much sparetime, I'd also love to see the officer to the right. Btw. I love your work. *y* Edited July 6, 2007 by Jesper Quote
Jesper Posted July 6, 2007 Posted July 6, 2007 soldier: officer: WOW you're fast. Thank you. Just went back from celebration of 6th of july (defeating the germans back in 1849 keeping them out of the fortress Fredericia - that's where I live), where we have watched soldiers in the old uniforms. So it's the perfekt way to celebrate, to make some LEGO soldiers. Quote
Lt. Col. Thok Posted July 6, 2007 Posted July 6, 2007 Just a question- could you actually make a minifigure using these prints? I'd like to see Captain Sharpe Lego-ized! Quote
El Bucanero Posted July 6, 2007 Posted July 6, 2007 Just a question- could you actually make a minifigure using these prints? Certainly! You can find some pictures of the minifigs with decals in this Brickshelf Folder. Mr Tiber Quote
ZeekyBoogeyDoog Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 I am very impressed with your work Mosana! I was wondering if you would make Seven Years war era British infantry and highlander torsos? Quote
Mosana Posted July 11, 2007 Author Posted July 11, 2007 (edited) Soldier: Officer: Highlander: Officer: As an aside, these are by far the most difficult torsos I've done. And on a completely different note, here is Harry Flashman, in 11th Light Dragoons outfit: Coming next: Ruritanians Edited July 11, 2007 by Mosana Quote
Eurobricks Emperor Bonaparte Posted July 11, 2007 Eurobricks Emperor Posted July 11, 2007 As an aside, these are by far the most difficult torsos I've done. These are very detailed and amongst the best you ever made. Good to see you are still improving and perfecting your skills *y* . Quote
Fordo Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 Those are very detailed torso's you truly are the master! *sweet* Quote
Mosana Posted July 11, 2007 Author Posted July 11, 2007 As some of you might be aware, Ruritania isn't a real place. It is the setting of the novel The Prisoner of Zenda which I have read recently, and I thought I'd make up what Ruritania's soldiers would look like, as the book gives no mention. These are really for my own amusement more than anything else, as it's nice to make something which doesn't need to be accurate in any way for once. Ruritania is described as being "between Austria and Germany", and so I tried to give these bodies a vauge Prussian theme, although you'd be hard-pressed to notice it. Soldier: Officer: Royal Guard: Quote
El Bucanero Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 Those are brilliant Mr Mosana! And on a completely different note, here is Harry Flashman, in 11th Light Dragoons outfit: But where should I put him? Under Britain? I'm impressed you made the Ruritanians from scratch, good job! Mr Tiber Quote
Fordo Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 I think I'll do Russians, for I wargame them, and already have a fair idea about what they'd look like. Hey Mosana I've forgot to ask you what Wargame to you play and could we see a picture of your Army? Quote
Mosana Posted July 12, 2007 Author Posted July 12, 2007 (edited) I wargame 1:72 miniatures in plastic, and have a couple hundred russians, mostly artillery and home guard. Seeing as there's really no "official" rules to use, compared to warhammer, for instance, I just play with my friends and use these rules we concocted ourselves, which is basically a tabletop form of Cossacks II. I have a camera, but unfortunately no idea how to work it. Also, this isn't strictly on topic but I'd like to ask the people who frequent this thread: How do you pronounce Cuirassier Sabretache Bagration Czapka Litewka I'd go for "queer-as-e-ay" "sabre-tache" "bag-rat-e-own" "schapska" and "lit-ay-wuh-ka" What are your thoughts? Edited July 12, 2007 by Mosana Quote
Fordo Posted July 12, 2007 Posted July 12, 2007 Heres my pronounciations of the words, "Cur-as-ieer" "Sabre-ta-che" "Bag-ra-teon" "Ka-zap-ka" "Li-ta-wuh-ka" Quote
avojak Posted July 13, 2007 Posted July 13, 2007 Seeing as how Czech is pronounced "check" (at least that's what i've heard, i may be wrong), i would guess that "Czapka" is pronounced "Chap-ka" with long a's. I'm proabably wrong, but thats my best guess. Quote
