The final pose from this set is the centre figure here (the other two are Esci 214 Napoleonic French Guard Infantry) representing Guard Military engineers and Sailors, Sapper Company

Nice work. Are these figures in soft plastic? and if so, how do you remove any flash? Scraping doesn't work and If I cut I end up chopping into the figures :sad: Is there a method that you use?

Cheers chaps :grin:
Nigel, I'd call it medium rather than soft plastic and I don't recall any flash on them 8-)
