@Gangleri: Oh right, that's a shame. Other clergymen who caught my eye (steady..): Steve Barber models has one or two interesting eastern European priests in their 1648 revolt range and Eureka got a Tyrolen (and as such appropriately angry and fundamentalist) rustic priest wielding a sabre IIRC.

Heyhey, inspired by Captain Darling's recentl AARs, last night I put a test game of Song of Drums and Shakos on the table.

full size image:

Tyrol, 1809. It's autumn, so we'll just quickly get these supplies and orders to the rebels before winter hits. You never know with weather in the mountains, and once it's winter it'll stay winter for a long time. For now we got nice weather. Light escort duty. Easy-peasy, what could go wrong.

(don't mind the driver's weird attire. Those civilians will wear the most ridiculous things

).

Haha, I'll see what I can do. If the very American Civil War looking driver doesn't bother you...

Heyhey. The photo isn't very favorable, but I'll call'em done. Vivandiere and army chaplain:

Vivandiere by Warlord Games, the priest is by Black Hussar. Hope you like them!

Lovely stuff, I like them very much. You are making it even harder to resist.

Excellent job on the flesh and the clothes look so real! Splendid!

Very nice! I'm almost done with an opposing Saxon Brigade.

@Shahbahraz: Thanks very much! They're a fair bit nicer looking in real life, but I'm a bit of a crap photographer.

@DintheDin: Thank you, Sir! (once more

)

@Greuthungi: Sounds great, do you have photos of them? I was thinking of maybe adding some Saxons, but I already did the Austrians and wasn't quite keen on the idea of having their opponents in white uniforms as well. Not to mention that I'd love to add some Italians for 1809 as well, which would leave me with three armies wearing white uniforms.

A view of most of my army WIP. Schützen are Perry Saxe-Weimar Chasseurs, line infantry by Emperor Toad's Emporium, cavalry by Old Glory and FG Miniz, Guard infantry and horse artillery by Black Hussar Miniatures.

Saxons by Emperor Toad's Emporium up close.

They have already fought in a Sharp Practice campaign weekend. Next weekend they will head the attack on Wagram with General d'Armee.

Great stuff across the board on this thread. Thanks for sharing, it is very inspirational work.

@Greuthungi: They look great!

I'm currently preparing some more 1806 Prussians (AB figures), which of course look a bit alike these Saxons.

@Rick W.: Thanks very much!

Right, I finished my little Austrian 3-pdr gun with crew for the 1809 project:

Hope you like them!

The hue of this brown, highlights and shading is perfect! Lovely!

Shahbahraz · « **Reply #88 on:** November 05, 2020, 09:42:31 PM »

Oh we do like them. Very much.

Splendid work all round
