Title: Leipzig 1813 project - 15 July, Austrians first finished!
Post by: grant on 15 July 2016, 03:28:08 PM

Finished my first regiment of Austrians last night. Here is the result. Figures are AB, from the US (terrific service!). Flag is from Fighting 15s in UK.  I have Austrians, Russians, Wurttembergers, and French so still lots more to do, and will keep everything in this thread.

 :o
Really nicely done, but, seriously.....Leipzig with 30 figure regiments??? You will need to find a table the size of a small parking lot.

Thanks guys!

OK, not ALL of Leipzig ... that would be insane!

Southwest corner, where the Austrians and the Russian lines meet. Little tiny slice of the battle. I'll be using Black Powder as I like the rules a lot (and if Ady ever gets the third supplement out, I hope it has Leipzig and not just the 1812 campaign!).

Grenadiers are of course separated, hence the 5 stands instead of 6.

And yes, lots of cool Russians to come. Wait until you see them ... :)

Nice work, AB are some of the best 15mm Napoleonic figures (in my humble opinion)

Great job, my 25s don't get such attention to detail! (With that amount of foliage I'd have sent Grenzers in there though  :))

Thanks all! I did do about 5 different kinds of flock and tufts -  lol - Now when I do the Grenzers they'll have to have TREES to distinguish them  :D
