Been meaning to put these on for a while, don't know what the quality of the pictures is like, . I made quite a large French Russian British Spanish collection of armies a few year ago prior to Pendrakens amazing new collection coming out so had to use other companies for some of the armies,. When I sort out how to put on more than the standard 2 pictures on a topic I plan to show more. Regards. Just looked at picture - very poor quality - will have a play later and replace, sorry

Yes, the photos have come out awful!!

I think the problem might be that they are very big (pixel count wise), and when you directly upload photos the maximum file size is quite small, so they are being down sampled loads.

Either try and resize them before attaching - or host them somewhere else (a blog or google photos are good options) then link to the forum.

Please do try to sort out the photos, as the thumbnails look really good, so it would be great to see them full size.

Posted at the same time as you.

The new ones are better quality wise, but are quite small.

Very nice, just how big are the armies? There is a hint of the size of them stretching away in the background of some of the shots.

Uauuuuuuu
It is very interesting your work of the Spanish army. How did you do it? with French figures?

I have a rather addictive personality so my French Army has 46 Bns (32 figs each) of Infantry 17 Cav (30 figs each), Russians 35 Bns and 15 Cav, Saxons 1812 19 Bns and 5 Cav, British/Port 19 and 5 and Spanish 13 Bns and 4 Cav , all with generals and Arty. I got hooked on 10mm due to size and manoeuvring on a wargames table. Got  my first batch from Ebay AIM figs from USA , now not available, then Pendraken Russians French. Unfortunately Pendraken didn't produce British at the time so went with MM. For the Spanish I went with Pendraken Revolutionary range French mostly, Cav were from various Pendraken codes. Will try for better pics in the future. Thanks for the kind remarks.
