First 10mm Part VI and final for a bit

[Obsidian23]

Hi all,

Well my last post I had prepped and readied some light infantry. Militia and cavalry.  And for Paulr my Kiwi mate , I am human and life sometimes takes over.  The weather turned nasty and was away two days longer thanks to snow and ice rain.  So all I managed to get finished this weekend was the cavalry.  I end up doing the 16th Light Dragoons mounted.  I wanted to finish them in time for the painting comp which I think had to be by Monday.

Oh and I went back and touched up all the previous work with some minor detailing.










Oh and I found some flags which I just printed and then reduced to scale.  Not great but look better than bare poles.





So enjoy.  And as always comments welcome.

Cheers,

Scott

Superb work . The tones on the horses work really well.

Thanks, appreciate the kind remarks.

Paulr, I read your forum post on your AWI project, I think there were like 50 pages of comments, and yes I read every single one.  Not much else when away and all you have is an IPad....  It was excellent and I was very impressed by your work, dedication to getting the job done.  I am using it now as the guide to building my AWI British, although cant remember ifyou had hessians..?   Anyway, I thought it was an excellent project, not bad for a Kiwi!  So north or South Isle?  I have been to Wellington, Auckland, Paihia (Bay of Islands), Takahue, I have climbed the Three Kings in Waiouru from every direction....

Cheer!

Thanks Obsidian

I have a couple of units of Hessians, von Bose and Jagers

I'm just north of Wellington, you've visited some interesting places including some I haven't been to. Reminds me of an internal tourism slogan, "Don't leave home till you've seen the country"

OK so in my 4 hours and 40 minutes I didn't get the unit finished.

I did manage to plant them and do the basics of the bases.  So I painted 3 bases of lights, one for each Regt, 1 unit of Grenadiers for the new Regt and 2 stands including the command for the new Regt which I have done as the 27th Inniskilling.  So tomorrow I will do the basing and get started on those militia.






Cheers,

Scott
