Napoleonic Prussians

 My first completed army! 1813-15 Prussians

 These are the grenadiers - Perry fusiliers but you cant tell the difference

 I like these a lot

 Skirmishers bases - 2 triangles so can join the line as well

 Flag by GMB of course

 Below my heavy cavalry brigade commanders

 ON the left Perry, right Foundry

 Perry foot and horse artillery limbers

 Perry howitzer with Foundry crew

 Foundry Landwehr cavalry

 I personally think the Foundry Prussians are fantastic

 Some lovely facial details

 I hate doing lance penants

 Foundry heavy brigade - dragoons and cuirassiers

 horse artillery with captured French guns

 Foundry hussars, Perry command and Silesian Uhlans

 Foundry and Calpe reservists - one battalion painted as fusiliers

 Mounted officers for the reservists

 Foundry line infantry ( 2 musketeers and 1 fusiliers)

 Calpe and Foundry landwehr - 2 battalions of each

 Calpe volunteer Jaeger

 Blucher and staff - foundry

Grenadiers 1 x 36
Line 3 x 36
+ skirmishers
12 Jaeger

Reservists - 3 x 36

Landwehr - 4 x 36

To paraphrase ugh Cornwell and the Stranglers.."No more Prussians anymore..........."

Paul Hicks designed Duchy of Warsaw foot artillery

 The foot artillery have arrived!

 I think Paul has done a great job again

 I wont have any painted for a few weeks so these are jsut the bared metal

 They havent even been cleaned - this is how they came from the casters

 Loads of character yet again

 The gun here is a French 8lb

 This would I think be more correct for late 1812 to 1814

 From 1809 - Borodino etc Austrian 6lb might be more apt, but the French guns would be correct as well

 I am able to supply either French 8lb or Austrian 6lb

 Choice of crews either loading or firing

Please contact me for details - email is in contact details.

Guest Poles

 A first on my Blog!  Pictures painted by someone else!

 Me grande amigo from Spain, Juan Carlos, painted some of these Murawski Miniatures Poles.

 I think he has sone an excellent job.

By the way; foot artillery are now available just waiting to take pictures.

Some oldies but goodies

Foundry French horse artillery with howitzer

 For some reason I like limber teams. I think its something to do with Peter Gilder.

 If you look carefully you'll see that every figure is different.

 I've also used the French in camp set to add "volunteer" labour

 As well as some gunners to one of the teams.

 You'll note the French greanadier on the right now a gunnery seargeant

 Not sure if the guy at the back should have been smoking a pipe

 I really like these figures as so full of character

 I like all the other bits you get with the guns as well

 The bases are deliberately huge and are influenced by Barry Hilton

 More pictures of the horse artillery

 Finally a close up of the gun being moved by hand

New pictures
