Napoleonic Madness

Some various Napoleonic units that I have been working on. 

The Austrians and Prussians are Perry miniatures. The French are Warlord Games with Perry Miniatures command (a few head swaps here and there).

Just painting some units I fancy rather than stick to one nationality.

I will be doing dome Spanish next.

SYW Update

 A few photos showing how the SYW project is progressing.

Figures are Claymore Castings. 20 x 30man units.

The plan is to add Prussian artillery next.

1st Bn Moskovskiy

 Some images of my latest SYW unit. The 1st Bn Moskovskiy. Figures from my own company ' Claymore Castings '.

here are the 1st and 2nd Bn of the regiment. Each 60 man regiment in the army has a 3pdr battalion gun.

The Russian army so fat. 7 x 30 man battalions. I hope to add a 2nd Grenadier unit soon.

My gaming table. Buildings are scratch built by James Sharpe. 

Grenadiers

 I have started to add grenadiers to my Prussian and Russian, Seven Years War collection. 

Here are the '13/26 Finck' converged grenadier regiment. These were converged fron their parent bns of the 13th Tzenplits (2 coys) and the Meyerinck (2 coys) bns.

Painted by Colin Davidson and myself. Figures are Claymore Castings.

Russian 3pdr bn gun

One of the things I really wanted for my Seven Years war Russian collection was a 3pdr BN gun.

I managed to get Richard Dickens to make one for Claymore Castings. Here is a sneak preview of the 3rd printed master.

Major-general Leontiev

 Finished my command base for the Russian brigade. This is my Major-general Leontiev who command the brigade at Kunersdorf.

The brigade 

I was asked about the paints I used for the greens and reds on this project. I chose the colours for painting large numbers fast and so I can go back and replicate the recipe in the future.

Here they are..

Reds

1: Base of GW Mephiston Red.

2: Light wash with Army Painted Stong Tone, thined out with a touch of water.

3: A highlight of GW Evil Sunz Scarlet.

The Green

1: Base of Foundry Russian Green B.

2: A slight wash with Strong Tone thinned out with a touch of water.

3: A highlight of Russian Green C and a touch of flesh added.

Hope this helps!
