Title: 1812 Russian Poses
Post by: lekw on 23 June 2020, 06:30:50 PM

A year or so ago I bought some of the 1812 Russian figures. They are really nice figures however, I forgot which pose is which. Does anyone have pictures of the poses or figures and codes? Or can anyone describe how the figures are posed? Thanks!!!

I assume you are meaning the differences between Line, Grenadiers and Jaegers, rather than between Marching, Firing and March Attack?

Looking for pictures of Line March Attack, Line Marching, Line Port Musket. Or very least some description? Pictures of anything in the Russian range would be great. Are they the same poses as the 18th century ranges? Thanks!!!

I have a few of these. So Marching is the easy one. They are marching with the musket rather slackly held at a near 45degree angle over the shoulder.

The March Attack is them marching (shocker!) holding the musket pointing straight up kinda on the shoulder again.

Port musket is again, pointing straight up but they are sort of standing and holding the mustket in front of them, partly covering the face like they are presenting arms or about to level their muskets.

I could try take some images but I dont know how to upload them here, probably need to send them to you or something.

The poses are generally the same as the SYW ranges, so the Austrians give a good idea: https://pendraken.co.uk/18th-century/seven-years-war/austrian/

I got my order and just wanted to say that the 1812 Russians are really nice. I especially like the command poses. I painted up one base and will try to get a some pictures up shortly. As usual love Pendraken figures!!!

I was finally able to paint a bit and got some of the Russians and French done for 1812. Just thought I would share a few pictures to my blog. Fantastic figures my painting does not do them justice.

Very nice, indeed.  :-bd  Also, good to see what the the 1812 Moscow range looks like (are the French from the asme range, also?)

They look really nice.

If i wasn't so heavily invested into 6mm for this period, I would be seriously tempted seeing how well yours have turned out.

Thanks all, my painting does not do the figures justice. The French are from the fantastic 1809 range. Anyone have a thought about what to proxy for Russian mounted commanders?
