The Combat of St. Ulriich.
A gallery of my new SYW miniatures. ( Claymore Castings).
My version of the small, fictional, SYW scenario from the 'Honours of War' rules.
This senario only needs 5 infantry units, 2 cavalry units and 2 guns (in total).
I'm using large 30 man units rather than the 20s used in the book, mostly for the look than gaming. However, my units can be made into smaller units for larger games when required.
I only have half of what's needed painted up and I'm slowly working on the rest. Here are some images of a small part of the table I'm creating for a demo game.
Building made for my collection by James Sharpe and river by 'Debris of War'.
Prussian command base by Thomas Foss .
Your collection is absolutely splendid. You're a master of faces, I have a lot of these figures and struggle to do half as well. Thanks for the inspiration, SYW is one of those figures that really rewards fine bushwork, so I will bookmark this page for motivation when I do my next SYW unit.

Such beautiful work 👍
ReplyDeleteNice collection, first class painting, really nice. I like this scenario, small number of units required means you can get it on the table as the collection builds, looking forward to seeing more of your SYW as it builds.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work on some lovely figures David!
