 Les Gens Brave, that's the other set of rules I have. Both seem to be interesting although Bazaine seems, at first glance, to be a tad convoluted when it comes to C and C/Movement. I should imagine it would ewt easier as they are played but I will see.

I have Bruce Weigle's two other books that are superb, so knew what I was getting with 1870 as it were. His 1871 rules sound interesting and will be show cased at Colours in September. Luckily for me I have been invited to play in the game which is a great honour. I just pity anyone who is on my side!

It's been a while I don't post anything. Although I'm pretty busy these days my painting desktop wasn't quiet at all. More pics soon!

Excellent news Javier. Looking forward to those.

Hello!
Finally I've found some time to take some pics for you. I'm still working on Saxons and I'm about to complete my Bavarians, but in the meanwhile I painted a few special stuff, such as these Brunswickers with hand painted flag and converted artillerymen.

And also some some command stands to match the Prussian ones I posted a few weeks ago. This time I made a command stand with Bazaine and staff. The Empress Dragoon ADC is a conversion using the French artillery officer included in the artillery limber or caisson packs, actually I just needed to change the head.

And finally an overall commander stand on a 5cm diameter Renedra base with Napoleon III and staff. The Emperor is on horseback escorted by a Garde de Cent in full dress. A Guard Lancer (again the same artillery officer than before) ADC in full dress brings news from the front. On foot, generals and officers draw the battle plan on a table (the table and the two figs behind it from Pendraken WW2 Germans range). And the horseholder from the ACW range.

They are brilliant Javier :-bd
Buy plenty of Matron's sculpts now!

If he keeps using the chainsaw, the value of his work will soon go up.

Love those, particularly the ADC conversions!  And every army needs some Brunswickers, they are so cool.  8)

Been looking forward to your next exhibition, Javier - definitely worth the wait! Great work (as usual).  =D>
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Really nice. The bold colours are very striking.

Thanks a lot! Now I'm planning a base with King Wilhelm, Moltke and Bismarck plus staff, and I hope to be able to run a game soon!
Cheers

Beautiful stuff, love the command stand in particular - I'm a sucker for a diorama base!
