Q - Is your eyesight getting worse by putting on that detailed stuff ?
A - Actually it is getting better... or so indicates my optometrist. But
give it a couple of years !

Q - Can I have more drummers in a unit at the same cost ?
A - I ask that you keep the proportions of officers, drummers etc. usual
to the size of the wargame unit but exceptions can be made email me
with what you have in mind.

Q - Basing is not included, why?
A - Well, several reasons. Usually a wargamer has an existing army or
collection which has a common terrain style for the stands on which the
figurines are attached. If done in that style by the wargamer, newly
painted Red Plume unit will easily blend into the existing
collection.(yeah, like a rose among daisies)
Creating terrain for the basing stands is not difficult [see INFO for
ideas] It does not take great skill but is somewhat time-consuming and
time is money as the saying goes. Actually many of Red Plume's
customers have said that by basing the miniatures themselves, they can
arrange the figures as they want and it feels they have created the unit
and, thus, have a greater emotional involvement with the army. ( a very
strange lot are wargamers !)
On the more practical aspect, without basing , the figurines are much
easier to package and the shipping costs greatly reduced.
See my Basing Information Section INFO for helpful suggestions and
ideas.
