AB Prussian Cavalry
« on: January 01, 2019, 05:16:53 AM »
I wrote a fast paint horse article recently on the blog https://valleyboyinnz.wordpress.com/
Since then I've managed to complete the cavalrymen for 3 units of Prussian cavalry
All are AB figures
First the Leib Hussars

Some Landwehr cavalry - they've actually got a trimmed down Landwehr infantry flag as I broke one of the lances and though not historically accurate I thought this was the easiest or at least laziest way of hiding it ::)

The 2nd dragoons




The Prussian cavalry is now looking reasonably strong when I add in the other dragoon unit and 2 Cuirassier regiments painted earlier this year

I cannot pretend to feel impartial about colours. I rejoice with the brilliant ones and am genuinely sorry for the poor browns. - Winston Churchill
