ACW - Louisiana Tigers


Manufacturer:   Perry Miniatures
Scale:  28mm


Hi,

a few weeks ago I received about 40 painted Zouaves from my Hungarian painting service.

He did, as always, again a very good job on these guys. 

I send the figures to him prepared with a primer and also fixed on washers.

After getting the figures back I put four of the figures on their bases measuring 40x50mm.

And here they are. Sorry for the low quality of the pictures. I will have to buy a new camera and also will have to build up a case where I can place the figures with a little scenery and also with perfect lighting.












The barn is self-made and about 10 years old. It is my first try to build houses on my own.


A good moment to show the two grizzly-bears I painted up about three or four years ago.



I couldn´t resist to make a little parade of all the confederates I already have within my collection.
Ok, artillery is still missing to complete the troop types.


I love the confederate cavalry. They look great with their grey coats and yellow facings.


Last but not least here comes the infantry.









Cheers

Mike

SYW - Prussian Army - Seydlitz hussars - HR 08 - WIP part two

Hi,

as I told you in my last post three horses had been missing for the unit. I managed to finish them last week but as we took our trip to Rhodes for holidays I wasn't able to post some pictures of the results.

So here are the horses in full strength.

SYW - Prussian Army - Seydlitz hussars - HR 08 - WIP part one

Hi,

after presenting my test figure for this unit in my last post I will give a short status quo of how the work on the regiment is going on.

Until now I´ve just finished the test figure and fixed the pelisse. There are also four more horses ready and waiting for their riders and also their basing.

I will give the regiment 8 men on four bases suitable for the rules of "Maurice".

So here are some pictures about the actual WIP. I hope to get the missing three horses ready till Friday night as I will be on holidays in Rhodes next week. :)

Sorry for the bad quality of the photos.



Cheers

Mike

The test figure and the five ready horses.

Another point of view.

The white or grey horse is a trial - maybe I´ve seen "Pipi Langstrumpf" a little bit too often as the horse looks like hers in the movies :)

The next three horses to paint up.

The missing riders.

The pelisses for the riders.
