2009 painting total









Quite a productive year for me, especially considering as this year I took the plunge and set up on my own. The painting has served an additional purpose as its given me a break from what other wise may have turned me into a workaholic.

The general theme was initially trying to finish my Prussians (still not completed but not far to go), but also adding some new units to my French 1813/14 army, then some commision work, and some plastic experimentation. I have two commisions for 2010 that I am looking forward to but still undecided as to what to paint for me. The choices are:

1. complete the Prussians
2. Russians from scratch - I have all the figures
3. Anglo-German force for northern Germany / Waterloo. I have most of the foot, some artillery, but need cavalry. I also have the excellent Foundry Wellington command set.........
Not made my mind up yet.
Anyway, the totals are:
For me:
20 Old Guard Grenadiers - Foundry
20 Old Guard Chasseurs - Perry
15 French casualties - Foundry
30 assorted Prussian skirmishers and Jaeger - Calpe
72 Prussian Landwehr - Calpe
72 Italians - Victrix
5 Prussian Brigade command - Calpe
4 Prussian mounted officers - Calpe
72 Bavarian line - Foundry
18 Bavarian light - Foundry
4 Bavarian command - Foundry
5 Bavarian foragers - Foundry
3 Discworld characters
Commission work:
88 Bavarian line and light
16 Bavarian cavalry
3 Bavarian command
Grand total:
412 foot
32 mounted
.................and four chickens and one pig......................two witches and a cynical policeman.
Hope you have a great festive season and will post pic's of the new Bavarians when my clients stop giving me work to do and I can have a holiday!
