My Great Northern war project
« on: September 26, 2011, 10:53:24 PM »
Its about time I collected my Great Northern war project in one topic on this forum.

A small (and very colored ;)) history lesson for the interested
http://kampgruppe-engel.blogspot.com/2011/09/caroleans.html


But enough about that, what we all want to see is the pictures.
This is unfortunate not my main project but in between some other projects I intend to paint some miniatures for my very slowly growing 15mm Great Northern war collection. And I thought this could motivate me to paint some more northern war models.




My Danish troops, Danska Garden til fods and Dronningens Livregiment.



My Swedish troops consisting of:
Närkes regiment in red and blue.
Västerbottens regiment in white and blue.



I put together a small tutorial on how I panted the Danish troops.

Really nice painting! Nice to see someone else doing Swedes vs Danes instead of vs Russians!

Are they based for Gå På?

I love them, splendid work! I really do like 15mm, a definite range I have a soft spot for!

Thank you all for the coments.

Abhorsen950 > Yeah, there is something special with 15mm.

Tomek917 > Yes you got that right, based for Gå På.
But I think I could play them based like this for Black Powder which is a rulesystem I know.
You got to love historical when you can use the same miniatures to diffrent rules.






And a small uppdate.

My Danish Fynske regiment.

It was some time that I last posted here but as I just finished some new troops I thought I could bring this thread to the surface.

Danish artillery and officers.

Awesome work Engel, it's inspired me to dig out my own 15mm GNW stuff for an overhaul, and noting your location, I may have a lot of questions to run past you. Would that be OK?

I'm certainly interested to see what you've done about 15mm flags.
