28mm Front Rank French Napoleonic line finished

I finished these today it's the third of my Front Rank Battalions, I really enjoy painting Front Rank they are a really nice crisp figure. Thanks Roger for the eagles they just finish them off.

28mm Hanoverian Hardenberg finished

I've finished this Regiment today i will put the flags in when i send them off but still have to print them out but this is the last chance of a picture as i'm away off to Auckland.

 I really pleased with the end result which is good because there are a lot more to do.

last nights game- the death of my army

 Oh what a fun game we had last night I was versing Craig and Martin  and it fell to me to attack so with 8 regiments of infantry and one heavy artillery i set to messin up my old Russian foes

 here i am lined up ready for battle

 I make an attack down both flanks

 Craig and Martin left the guns undefended so i march straight down the centre

 things still look pretty good for my lads at this stage but in my next turn i fail all my attacks and this proves to be vital.

 The Russian reserve cav arrive things are not looking the best

 even though i survived the canister i took so many hits i could no longer attack i was then forced into square and the attacked by heavy cav which bounced twice the second time i had moved a second regiment behind so they could not break off and they were destroyed.

 my right flank is destroyed by Martins forces

   I get my reserve cav and send one against Craig's guns and one against Martin on my right Martin forms square and i bounce twice

 My flank completely crumbles

 In the distance my cav destroys Craig's guns and then in turn is destroyed by Craig's cav as you can see the rest of my army is falling back, end of game one to the Russians

28mm Front Rank French (somethings wrong)

Almost there but then what do we find after cutting the pole on the first flag to short i quickly did another and you wouldn't believe it, it's upside down and really stuck fast. they had to be my GMB flags that i ordered from England. I can only hope that i can get the pole out later. 

Still waiting on the enamel paint i mix with turps for the bases hopefully here tomorrow

 I changed the cuffs on these lads had it a bit wrong on the last lot

 what a bummer

28mm syw Hanoverian based

I've based them just waiting on some paint to start the painting of the bases. I'm really pleased with the final result and can't wait to see them completed then of course like most figures i paint boxed up and sent on there way to their rightful owner. I think that Reg will really enjoy this army when completed

28mm Front rank Napoleonic French done

This is my first line Battalion for my second division

I really like these Front Rank 

  Got to love the GMB flags well worth he money. I've left space for an eagle on top just need to buy them

 Don't you hate it when you look at the photos and see where you've missed painting something. The cuff on the flag bear missing red

28mm French limber finished

well here we are again i finished these guys off over the weekend not so happy about the amount of grass i put on the base a bit to much i think oh well

 I've been using a different system to paint the flesh it's quicker but i'm not happy with it so i think i will return to what i was doing before.

  the other day i wrote that i used ogryn wash on this but actually is is devlan mud sorry about that
