Lovely news. The booklet published by the Danish War Museum is good although having no reverse shots of uniforms/equipment makes it difficult for sculptors to get an accurate picture of what they are sculpting. Ralph Weaver's book is not bad although it too suffers from lack of additional material on uniforms and equipment.I picked-up an Osprey style book on the subject and again lacked depth of uniform coverage.I was going down the path of having Steve barber sculpt the range, but forgo and instead went for the Hungarian Up-Rising 1848-49.Again, I wish you the best of luck with the range. Its one that I've an interest in.
Very interesting. I will follow this post with great interest. 1. Schleswig War is way more fun than the second even though it gets all the attention (and the TV series). The Danish cavalry kicked arse in this war. I've always wanted to try out some sort of skirmish cavalry game from this war. Waterloo To Mons Miniatures did a range of miniatures for this war. I managed to get hold of some of the infantry but I don't the company exist anymore. CheersErik
ps yes I plan on doing it in stages, Danish and Holstein troops in converted danish uniforms followed by the Prussians. then all the German minor states. Recieved the first two figures and seperate - backpack musket etc. This allows me to do all.Dave
More pictures!
Here is the front cover of the Osprey style book:
PS The picture not too good, but gives you an idea of the figure. I'll have to find out how to post the picture direct!!!!!!Dave
