The Swamp Fox

Some years ago I had this soft back book re-bound with a hardcover by a bookbinder in the village.......

a great read.

Anyway, I present General Francis Marion and his merry band of militia.

Tarleton and his Legion

The only figure I kept from the Peter Gilder AWI collection which appeared in the Curt Johnson was Tarleton. For those interested the AWI collection of PG was significantly more than shown in the book and featured many miniatures that never appeared in the retail range.

The legion cavalry were commanded by the painted Suren figure in the first photograph. Not sure who painted the figure but it still looks good.

As I could not better the Suren mounted version I made a Tarleton dismounted.

All the cavalry and infantry I painted during the early 90's. I remember that the infantry I painted whilst on holiday in Tenerife. The cavalry were painted some years earlier.

North Carolina Brigade

Hard to believe these were designed and painted in the early 1990's! some maybe the late 80's? As the American army is quite large with over 1000 miniatures. I made loads of variants in all sorts of poses.

They have stood the test of time and been part of many a campaign.

ps...will the Polish Winged Hussars appear?

Another Prussian Officer

The other day an AMG Forum member emailed me a piece of artwork he had painted for a future Charles S. Grant publication. So yesterday I made a figure based on the said artwork.

I am not sure which Prussian regiment the figure will be attached so I have left off at this stage lapels and collar.
