Awesome work, mate! Really like the panzer dragoons and their battle tactics like the more known panzergrenadiers!

Like what you've done with the Shock troops. You've given me some good ideas to work with. The nordenfelt is a great scratch build and will look great painted! Excellent work on all.

Absolutely gorgeous! I'm happy to see that the Zulu arms go so well with the shocktrooper bodies.

Quite right! Handsome figures that probably work best for the VSF period, though it's not like you didn't have enough heads and arms in the Shock Troopers' box as it was... ;->=

Ah, the joys of an over-crowded bitz box.

What are the plans for their conveyance?

Greedy buggers, aren't we?  :D

Yea sure, I finally convinced myself that I had no need for the shocktroopers and now here you come with this awesome conversion, proving I can in fact use them for VSF.

Excellent work. I'm particularly keen on the job you did on the Ironclads. Very nice.

Love the Dragoons, & LIs.  Gearing up for LI myself, & like the combined armes battle report.

I couldn't tell from the pictures, were the LIs Brigades?

Where were the naval ships from?

Wow, great stuff, you've even managed to make the Wargames Factory stuff look passable!

Looking forward to mowing down those Prussians and sinking those warships this Xmas!  :D

The Ironclads are a real mix. Most are converted things from all over the place. Im going to do a blog post soon like I did showing the Peruvians, but featuring the British and the French.

Sorry to double post, but I put up some ideas for the Prussians Transport. What do you think?

Handsome base to make wicked with, indeed, but I should like a look at your ironclads, or better look if you are following the Land Ironclads in the other blog post, before trying to envision your troop support. ;->=
