28mm Perry British Light Infantry Germantown Campaign

[SirGromit1879]

Hello all,

 Thought I would take a photo of these to post on here as this is the first unit I have ever completed after over 10 years of painting (hoarding) miniatures. Painted them up for the wargames group i am with for a game at Penarth. The pressure of a deadline really helped and now i have realised i can finish painting jobs it has inspired me to make sure to finish more!.

They are Perry AWI British light infantry. 40th Somersetshire regiment. The colour bearers and drummer will be the start of my center company but was too excited to get some flags on some finished minis so put them with the light infantry.

Can't wait to finish the regiment now, Grenadier company next then up to 3 center companies, although need to juggle that with preparing for a medieval demo game next year

First time using static grass applicator for bases and only had 2 hours to do it so did not get time to do multiple layers of different lengths.

Cheers

Nice job!

Very nice work, and a nice apple tree in the back too.  I think the bases look fine, especially for the  horse and cart.  One suggestion, though, is to cover up the white of the horse's eyes, which is normally visible only when the animal is frightened.

Thank you very much guys =). Thank you for the tip about the horses eyes, he does look like he came from a cartoon . The tree is the only scenery item I have finished so will get used a lot in photos
