A few Uhlans that didn't make it into this year's Painting Competition.

The 5th Uhlans, Belgium, 1914.

They look good !

    

Very impressive

Great work mate!

Nice stuff

Thanks very much guys.

WWI is a little side-project I dip into now and then when I start to feel a bit jaded over some of my larger projects.

They are based for Great War SpearHead, so the units are quite small: 4 bases for both infantry and cavalry and, after fiddling about with "how many figures to a base" settled on 12 figures for an infantry battalion and 8 for a mounted unit.  This means I can finish a unit in a couple of sessions.

Slightly late to the game here, chum, but these really do look fantastic. A shame they didn't make the cut for the painting comp this year; those pickelhaubs look superb.

Been toying with starting a small WW1 German force myself but have been slightly hesitant as the shop doesn't have any photos, so these are a big help!

If you want some more WWI temptation here are a couple of painting diaries with quite a few pictures amongst the waffle
