Mohawk Valley, Jaegers & Militia
« on: 22 December 2021, 09:46:10 AM »
The last project for 2021 was finished off this week with these Hesse Hanau Jaegers and some additional Albany & Tryon County militiamen to join the Mohawk Valley collection of figures.



All the collection is composed of figures from the Perry's range of AWI figures and next year the focus will shift very much towards building up the rebel forces.



If you would like to know more about these figures and the campaign ideas they are designed to compliment then just follow the link to JJ's

Hi Chaps,
Thanks for your comments and glad you like my reinforcements.
I will be recruiting for the Tryon County and Albany Militia in the New Year in preparation for another descent into the Mohawk Valley by Sir John, so lots of fun to come.

As mentioned in the previous post linked, the sabot bases are the low profile irregular options offered by Supreme Littleness Designs which to my mind are a cut above.

Happy Christmas all.

JJ

Nice painting, I particularly like the Jager. And a good read on an often overlooked part of the AWI.

Very nice work. I live and worked in upstate NY for over a decade and find the Revolutionary history fascinating.
I am looking forward to seeing the Haudenosaunee allies.

Thanks for your comments chaps, much appreciated.

The work continues over the Xmas break with my Rebel militia starting to take shape, and I will post again when the first units are finished.

Most excellent!
And the glorious general led the advance
With a glorious swish of his sword and his lance
And a glorious clank of his tin-plated pants. - Dr. Seuss

Thank you chaps. The militia are into the highlight stage so hoping to have some pictures up in about a week or so.

Cheers
