I like the blue of their uniforms and the perfect yellow lining! Very well done!

Thanks all!

I went with a bit finer sand and more flock on these bases for an overall greener look.

I'm not sure what I prefer to be quite honest. I kinda like the more spartan bases with more earth. Unsure...

Also received a new packet from Pendraken. It contained a number of animal packs and a new army of dudelies with pointed heads.  :D

Been awhile since I have made an update...

Finally, I have finished my Cuirassiers!

Here is a closeup look:



And here are a couple photos (too dark unfortunately) of them based:





So much detail and the white horses... drove me crazy.

On a brighter side... I finished a flock of sheep!  :D



Currently I am working on a piece of terrain which may be interesting. After that, a couple regiments of Zouaves. I'm past the half way mark on my initial army and have pretty much painted all the minis in the army deal.

I was going to list them as the platoon of engineers that accompanies the artillery but I thought that might be a stretch...

Terrific project very nicely executed indeed. I have become a big 10mm myself in recent years and these are just marvelous sir

Hello Ray,

I don´t want to spoil your phantastic miniatures but I am afraid the horse-tail of the trumpeter´s helmet was red...but that is easy to fix I guess.

If you search for "casque 1858 trompette" you will find some nice originals.

Cheers Fedja
