Made up of artists, architects, musicians, and actors, the unit served with distinction in the Boer War and WWI, eventually forming the 21 Special Air Service Regiment (Artists Rifles). The soldiers presented here are standing at attention in full dress, and include four privates and an officer.         Price: $50.00



Future releases will include more Spanish forces for the period, as well as additional US troops in campaign and dress uniforms. The next subject planned is the Mexican Revolution - some constitutionalistas to fight with the US WWI infantry in your collection - followed by some Austro-Hungarian troops in parade uniforms. We also will be releasing a two-figure vignette of a French line infantryman and cantiniere in the pre-Franco-Prussian War uniform.

A number of sets of infantry from Australia, Canada, and Britain are also contemplated, to fill in gaps where there are few offerings. This line is called "Regiments of the Empire' and our first release is Set 8, the Artists Rifles. Future sets may include other of the British volunteer rifle units, as well as the Canadian Queen's Own Rifles, and units such as the New South Wales 2nd Regiment of Infantry. These would be complemented by a Victorian (Australia) foot artillery set in white helmets, after Richards' excellent plates.
