Peninsular War Brits
« on: May 17, 2016, 07:18:03 AM »
My 15mm Peininsular War Brits - all Blue Moon 15mm (18mm)



Also carts:


Light Dragoons in Tarelton Helmets:


More light company


sadly the pack sizes mean I'm a couple of Dragoons short of a third group but I'm not sure I'd really need that many so I'm going to use a couple of a vignette deployment point.

Currently they are maskerading as the 43rd light infantry adn 95th rifles.

But I'm probably going to switch to a regular line brigade as I want to run regulars in SP2 now.

I'm tempted by KGL...  some Hussars with In Hand will be very nice.

Looking good, nice job and they are coming together fine, I have just ordered some Austrians from Blue Moon, how do you find their figures?

Generally awesome.  No flash and only the tiniest bits of vent to remove.
Between us we've got Brits, Austrians and Frenchies and they are all brilliant casts and detailed sculpts. 
There isn't much variety in the poses though which is a shame. 

The wagons are Hallmark (from ebay) and area also amazing.

They are definitely 18mm not 15mm.

The wagons look really impressive and good words about Blue Moon, look forward to getting mine now!! Wagons are a thing I never really bother with but they do look good and it is something I should really look at getting on my table.

the only thing is most of the hallmark wagons don't have horses!
also the driver is definitely 15mm
