Thanks Chaps :D

Chucked some paint at some more Figures (the foundry 95th Officer looks too small next to the Perry figures to my wonky eyes, so he won’t be getting used  :'( )

I’ve decided that the troops seconded to The Silver Bayonet Units keep their old units uniforms but all have black facings with either white or silver piping.

  50th Line Regt. actually did have black facings (only Line regiment in the British army of the period that did).

I have got some dismounted Light Dragoons to finish fighting as infantry as well, so not every one in the section is from an infantry regiment

Finished up some more troops and a bad guy
A Highlander, 2 Dismounted Light Dragoons to use as Infantrymen, a Light Dragoon Supernatural investigator/Veteran Hunter (I cut off his bugle & added a Blunderbus), a Vetran Hunter/Supernatural Investigator & a Doctor (a Perry Miniatures Navy Chap with a Crooked Dice head) 
Also a Pixie originally from Bears Head now sold by Bad Squiddo Games
& Picture of all the figures to use in the Unit

What are the bases you are using for the military figures?
I don't normally like the display-style bases but yours look really good.

Absolutely stunning work!! You have some great figures in those photos. Too bad some of those folks don't know what they will be up against on their quests...😁

I finished painting up my Peninsular battle groups, baddies, etc. And now I'm working on my Canada groups. Unfortunately I don't know how to upload photos to share.

Thanks for sharing your amazing work.

 Thanks everyone

Here’s a Grizzly from Rogue Miniatures & a Front Rank French Drum Major to use as an Occultist (he’s already got the Wizards Staff lol ) or a Supernatural Investigator, I’m still unsure whether I should have put piping on his turnbacks :?

Post by: Pattus Magnus on April 11, 2024, 05:03:51 PM

Neat repurposing on the drum major! I never would have had a use for one, but he fits right in as a mystic. The expression on the bear is fun, too - kind of a “what next?” resignation there.

Thanks chaps

@ Chairface: He’s fantastic isn’t he. Yes from Rogue Miniatures now carried by Caliver Books/Minifigs

@ MaleGriffin: They are 3d printed available from Only Games


Another figure that I’ve forgotten to add, the final member of my British Unit, a Heavy Cavalryman, this is another Caliver/Minifigs figure from the Regency Zombie Hunters range, he’s had a bit of work done (there’s more details in the Latest conversion thread at The Workbench section or on my Blog)
