Last year I started painting 10mm WSS French. I did a brigade and then stopped for a long while. I picked up where I left off last October/November. I've painted up two brigades of foot, half a brigade of Gardes-Françaises, one brigade of horse, a brigade of dragoons and a couple of cannon. The vast majority of figures are Pendraken. The Gardes and some of the officers are from Van Dyck. I've now moved on to building an Allied force of approximate equal size.
I've really come to love painting 10mm. You can make decent sized formations at low cost and I find them quick and easy to paint. I also only have a 6'x4' table so it will better suit a 10mm battle over larger scales. All in all, this whole army only took me about 3 months of do (if you discount my 10 month break). As mentioned above I've started on an Allied force for which I have all the figures, but I also jumped in on New Years Eve (Australian time) and put in another order with Pendraken just before they raised their prices. I know that I'm going to paint them and I had "Christmas Money" so I thought: "Why not!"
Anyway, here's what I have so far:
