CULVERIN


A hefty artillery piece by Irregular Miniatures, comes with 4 crew. It would be nice if it had some equipment with it as well , such as a powder barrel, spare shot, gunner's lunch etc. I had to change one of the crew members heads for a bit of variety otherwise there would have been 3 identical heads on the crew members, so the guy on the far left has an A Call to Arms noddle.

There seems to be a distinct shortage of lighter guns for 54mm ECW collectors. ACTA do a heavy piece (saker or culverin), as do Alexanders Toy Soldiers, but I could really do with some smaller lighter guns. Possibly some 40mm guns could be pressed into action.

  1. Would Irregular 42mm artillery pieces work ? , Tony

  2. Nice gun and crew

    The Sash and Sabre 40mm range guns are quite chunky - the culverin may do as well as the saker.

  3. Thanks chaps. I will try out the Irregular one first as it's a lot cheaper.
