Pancerni Update

Whilst waiting for the Polish Pulks to arrive I have managed to complete four more figures to go with the three already done.

Althann ready to paint

Managed to convert the four remaining figures required to finish off Austrian dragoon regiment Althann. My milliputing skills are not what they were, a reason for my push on completing the collection ASAP. 

The Pancerni are next. I will continue with these before the end of June.

David informs me that the Polish Pulks will be with me this coming Friday. Also the remaining Russian artillery. So next weekend I will be basing the 'new recruits'.

The Schloss

I am delighted with the Schloss I purchased. Pete is an incredible modelmaker. The 3 figures in the first photograph range from 33-36mm in total height. This gives the reader some visual size of the model. The height and footprint is huge but in scale with my existing models.

I just need to decide what other models to commission.

The Schloss will feature in the forthcoming campaign.

Tatars Finished

The eighteen Tatars are now prepped. 

Only the Pancerni and an Austrian dragoon regiment to prep and that is me Finished with the collection. If required I will then make the odd vignette but no more units.

I promised to show photos of the Schloss I commissioned from Total Battle Miniatures. I only took one photograph, if you wish to see more visit their Facebook page. Pete who made it said it would appear on Facebook following Partizan. 

The coach is 30mm and the tallest tower is over 19 inches.

Back to the Tatars

Back to prepping.

Last of the Tatar cavalry owing to having few suitable light horses. Although I have a bag full of figures!

Started another 18 figure unit. This will give me four such units when painted.

They are very colourful and a useful addition.

Regiment Voronezhskiy

Finished basing this Russian regiment today. 

Not sure you can see in the photos but the Russian infantry do not have buttons on cuffs and those in waistcoats have green cuffs...... this applies to all infantry regiments during this period. Red button lace on coats had been removed, however, I decided officers, ncos would retain that distinction.
