Converting the P&S Plastic Musketeers

[Charge The Guns]

I’m in the process of building up some forces for the Thirty Year’s War and so I would like to show some of the shot with Musket Rests. The plastic infantry sprue helpfully includes a couple of rests. I have been experimenting with ways of having the marching figures carry the rest.

So far I have come up with this. I have used a drummer’s right arm (from the command sprue), and snipped / filed off the drumstick.

Very interested to know if anyone has any other ideas to add the rests to the figures?

Nice conversion!

I found the metal musketeers add variety to a unit. I’m not much good at converting miniatures.

Thanks Corso! I will definitely add in some of the metal figures as well. I think the trick here is to find suitable right arms. There are only so many drummer’s right arms I can find 🙂
