ACW - Confederate Cavalry

Manufacturer:  Perry Miniatures (Perry Plastics)
Scale:  28mm



Hi everybody,

though I´ve already posted some pictures of these guys in a earlier post on my blog I wanted to show them to you finished and also in a little setup.
Finished means that the bases hadn´t been ready yet. Now they are ready for action.

These wonderful figures from Perry Plastics have been painted by Krisztian and are planned to be used for the rules of "Longstreet" by Sam Mustafa. 

Within my next post I will show the Confederate Infantry also painted by Krisztian. They also need their final basing.

I love the style Krisztian is painting figures and these nice guys surely won´t be the last figures I will send to him.


Cheers
Mike

SYW - Austrian Army - Fusiliers and Grenadiers of my own range

Manufacturer:  Dreispitz Miniatures
Scale:  28mm


Hi fellows,

again a lot of time had past by since my last post. But today I want to show you a lot of pics of some figures Krisztian painted up for me. Normally I like to paint my SYW-stuff on my own but this year I wanted to get some figures of my own range ready painted to show them on Tactica in Hamburg in order to sell some figures. As I´m a slow painter I sent them to Krisztian who did a very good job and the miniatures had been ready just in time. Unfortunately I wasn't able to drive to Tactica because of my second job that is playing in a band.

After moving to another place and getting the flat tidy and livable I just managed now to get the figures on their bases. I again decided to base four figures on bases 4cm wide an 5cm deep. Four bases are presenting a unit to use them for the formidable rules of "Maurice" from SamMustafa.

My range only has eight different poses: 
Grenadiers kneeling firing, standing firing, kneeling presenting arms, standing presenting arms.
Fusiliers kneeling firing, standing firing, kneeling presenting arms, standing presenting arms.

Krisztian painted up 4 of each type and I mixed two stands of each Grenadiers and Fusiliers so two units could be built.

So here they are.
Hope you like them. ;)



























If someone of you is interested in buying some unpainted figures of my range please contact me by sending a comment including your mail-address and I will send you an e-mail back. 
One figure is 1,40 €.

Here is also a figure of a Fusilier I painted on my own. It shows the Bavarian regiment Minucci.







Cheers
Mike
