Sorry for the lack of updates over the last few days, unfortunately my Gran suffered a serious fall so I have travelled up to be with her and the rest of the family.
The greens are with Stewart at Griffin and as soon as I have some of the master castings I will let you know.

Why?
The Duchy of Strackenz exists, in this version at least, to enable me to put together a model army based upon the descriptions of his ideal force found in 'Reveries' written by M. de Saxe in 1732.
I hope that the readers, regular or occasional, will contribute with suggestions and comments on all aspects of this quest.
There are three main areas that I wish to cover. These are:
The uniforms - these are very subjective and any help you can give would be appreciated.
The Sculpting - as I intend to sculpt and cast the figures any help, hints, tips or ideas will help.
The Organisation - again taken from the composition of a Legion in 'Reveries' probably the best description but still open to some interpretation.
When working out something, I will post any relevant quotes from my version of 'Reveries' to enable those who do not have a copy to become involved. However, there seem to be various translations of this work so if you have one that gives a different quote please comment upon it.
Whilst the ultimate decision on everything here will be mine any debate about details etc will help make that decision so please get involved. To help matters along I will run various Polls on different topics so you can give a quick response.

I hope your gran gets better soon. We'll be here when you get back.
Ditto to what A J said....
Thanks guys. Unfortunately, although she has now left hospital, she cannot return home. The last couple of weeks have been spent organising and moving. Hopefully all is now sorted and the good news is that we still have her (it was close at one point).
