Pauls Task - 1st Saxon Artillery - total of 6 miniatures

This is an initial set that we want to use to generate more gunners with different head-gear and uniform bits from at a later stage.

Four gunners - serving the gun: 
All like in image 1.) 2nd from the right.
- covered shakoes round pompom
- gaiters
- stripe on the side of the pants
- no knapsacks
- grenades on coat-flaps
- ammo puches with crossed cannon-barrels

Equipment:
- 1 with the hot bit that starts the shooting (really no clue what that stick is called in english!)
- 1 with stuffer (see image x.)
- 1 who covers the hole and sort of aims
- 1 with long wood bit They move to shuffle the gun around


One officer:
Exactley like the bloke in image nr. 2 just ours is standing straight and points at the enemy with his right while holding his sword hilt with the other. Please keep this cape-like coat in the wind. Covered-tshako and interims uniform under the coat like the 1st dude in this plate: http://westfaliaminiatures.com/images/plates/wf_05.jpg

Pauls Task - English Ranker - with classic hand gesture

Required is:
1 English ranker (center-coy) doing that gesture with the right hand. Musket in the left hand. Totally hateful expression in the face.
He should be standing as if part of a square.
I trust you're good with the british uniform incl. the Belgian shako.

Pauls Task - Musketeers Corrections

 Again the Officers were all pretty good.

I just mention things that would need to change from the current ranker masters.
You decide if it makes sense to reuse parts or to restart all together.
I need a total of 6 different masters that are like the other figs plus below feedback.
(preferably not the one that makes the huge step!).

-  Cantina should go to the Knap-sack.
-  We need a bread bag (right shoulder to left hip)

-  Coat needs to be loosely folded instead of rolled up.
-  there was no 'march-attack' with the Saxon army! 
   Below Austrians work as a perfect example:
- The Pompom was indeed an oval thing of awe.
- Pointy cuffs (only for rankers, not the officers)


I somehow knew that this would be a bit painful, but I think we're pretty much there.
