Title: SYW - Project Maurice
Post by: Fritz II. on 13 August 2012, 12:11:14 AM
Hi,

some of you already followed my last posts on some units of my SYW-project. I´m happy that they had been commented very positive.

Today I´m starting this thread that is intended to show pictures of my growing SYW-project. Every time I manage to finish a unit I will post it here in future.

The first picture is about my Austrian Command base that I finished just this evening.

There are some more pictures and information on my blog.

Thanks for viewing.

Cheers
Mike

Clearly the Austrian line have advanced... A dead skirmisher at the feet of an officer who’s, despite his pompous stance, clearly lead from the rear is an undeniable sign of success… ;)

Very nice work 8)

Hi all,

it´s been a long time ago that I was able to keep on our hobby. At least about two and a half months.

Yesterday I was able to finish a first test figure for my next unit planned for Maurice. A soldier of the Bavarian Regiment Minucci.

The long abstinence of painting showed me that I need more practice. I hope to get much inspiration on the CRISIS in Antwerp this weekend.

More pictures can be seen on my blog.

Cheers
Mike

Hi,

as I need diversity during painting I´m hardly able to paint up a complete unit at once. Therefore I often paint up two different units at the same time.

Parallel to my already shown Grenzers I´m also painting the French Dragoon Regiment Apchon at the moment.

Here is a little picture.

As it is a pity to take the models from the vitrine only for gaming I sometimes build up small displays on my gaming table – just for fun and to see how the armies are growing. I also put the unfinished units onto the table just for motivating me to finish the regiments. It is always a great feeling to see how the units are steadily growing.

Here is a view upon my "battlefield".

If you are interested there are some more pictures on my blog though they are not of high quality.
I should have learned to handle cameras. ;)

Beautiful work.  Now why didnt I do Maurice in 28mm instead of 15mm?
