Blue Moon British Heavy Dragoon 15mm

Another update, this time a British Heavy Dragoon. I am really happy with the Blue Moon cavalry. Very little flash and loads of clear detail. A joy to paint, that's why I purchased 36 of them lol

Napoleonic update, 3 more Old Glory battalions

Hi all

Just finished another 3 battalions. 2 British & 1 French. Minis are old glory 

Bases are MDF 25mm X 30mm from Products for Wargamers.

I fix them with my normal bases mix. I will leave them to dry then add GW texture paint and finally some flock.

That's 9 British battalions and 3 French. 

15mm Old Glory Highlanders

A Scottish update. I just need to complete the red pattern on their socks and heads. I will give them a quick wash then highlight. I am quite happy with the tarten for 15mm figs.

15mm Blue Moon Napoleonic British Heavy Dragoons

Hi All
Some more figures done, this time blue moon 15mm Napoleonic british heavy dragoons.
I would first like to say I am really happy with the quality of thses figures. Great detail and a real pleasure to paint. Much better horses than battle honors or old glory. Sadly the same cannot be said for their infantry, the sculpts are nice but loads of chunky flash around the right hand connecting to the entire backside of the infantry figures.
But lets focus on the good stuff

I purchased 1 command pack and 2 troop packs to give me 36 figures totalling 3 regiments. Based on 45mm x 40mm bases 

A comparison shot with the infantry. I will get these flocked as soon as my flock applicator arrives.

I hope you like them.

Line troops in campaing dress, again old glory.

Thats 48 minis done, now another 10 battalions to do.

Napoleonic update. 15mm British mostly Old Glory

hi all
i know it has been a while but i have been busy painting and at work.
i was unhappy with the 40mm x 30mm bases and after some mock ups and calling a friend decided to go with 24 minis to 6 bases. The bases are from Products for Wargamers, Jim was very helpfull and made these up quick time and at a fantastic price.

25mm x 30mm roughly the same size as Napoleon at War bases. i like the size of the base as it protects the figures and allows space for me to flock them (later). i needed to rebase a load of minis so heres some pics.

in line

 

and some highlanders

most of the miniatures are Old Glory. i like the detail and variety of poses compared to some manufacturers, it makes them more interesting to paint.

 group shot, 7 battalions

 

 the south essex? sharpe & Harper lead the way.

 

and finally the comparison in bases sizes. battalion on the left has 32 minis on 40mm x 30mm.

on the right 24 miniatures on 25mm x 30mm bases. this way they are more flexable and i paint a lot 

less.
