Niagara 1814 work in progress

Long time project just starting up.  Always fascinated by this campaign subsisting the battlefields in 1985.  Finally started painting figures.

Great looking figures. Have a look at my website as I have created a set of skirmish rules for the War of 1812 called Red Coats and War Hawks. It is easily adaptable for larger scale games…instead of using individual figures, you can take them up into company size and battalion size units.

Check out my website: battlefieldgamedesigns.com

The game is not just the rules but also includes 400 cards, artillery templates, a summary game chart and most importantly 15 game scenarios to get you started.

As for your figures, Forrest Harris from Knuckleduster is a fantastic guy to deal with and is one of the sponsored manufacturers in the rule set.

Very nice! Love those flags...are those commercial, or do you do them yourself?

Thank you all for the kind words!  Will keep you up to date on progress.

The flags are indeed from flags of war. Really outstanding work.   I just added the finals and cords from front rank.  They are great looking!  I hope some day you might add some of the militia flags.  Once I start my British/Canadian collection I will be adding lots more flags.  Thank you!
