My latest update I have finished three more battalions of French which gives me 24 battalions.
As you know, it is not just the painting of the figures but also the painting and flocking of the bases, the varnishing of the figure and 24 flags/fanions to be done before you can say they are finished.
I have also finished 5 battalions of Brunswick infantry, basing/varnishing/flags and all, along with a new terrain mat 11' x 7' to allow for the overhang, plus about a dozen smaller terrain mats.
The majority of the figures are Perry miniatures, converted plastic with a few metal command packs thrown in. The excellent Brunswick flags are from Flags Of War and I have given one flag to each of the 1st and 3rd Line Battalion, although each battalion should have two flags each. The two light battalions and the Avante-Garde Battalion didn't carry flags.
28mm figure for scale.
A few staged shots with the Brunswick contingent forming a hasty defence from the advancing French.
A recent newbie to your blog the terrain mats do look excellent 👍
ReplyDeleteWelcome aboard, glad you like the mat Matt.
DeleteFantastic looking figures and terrain Pat.
ReplyDeleteCheers Ray.
DeleteThat’s a huge amount of infantry! It’s a great sight deployed on the table. Well done! 😀
ReplyDeleteThanks Stew.
DeleteAn impressive sight Pat! So many troops in one place and enough that you’ve definitely got the right feel for a napoleonic scene.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dai, lots more troops in the painting queue.
DeleteVery impressive as always Pat:)
ReplyDeleteThanks Steve.
ReplyDeleteSplendid looking troops and terrain !
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Cheers Iain.
DeleteLovely terrain Pat like the departure from a flat gaming table and hope you don't get RSI from all that painting
ReplyDeletecheers John
Such a superb terrain...with many gems on it!
ReplyDeleteThanks Phil.
DeleteThanks John, yeah I have managed to get in the zone with the figure painting, no RSI but starting to go boss-eyed.
ReplyDeleteMost excellent, Brunswick would be my army of choice if I indulged in the era too.
ReplyDeleteThere is something about the all black uniforms, Brunswick Lancers on the painting desk at the moment.
ReplyDeleteThe figures look fabulous, and the terrain is superb - that hanging basket liner gives a great effect. Just that ‘verge’ line along the roads adds a big impact for me.
ReplyDeleteThanks, yes I'm pleased with how the hanging basket liner has turned out.
DeleteAs expected outstanding layout of terrain and the Brunswick troops look lovely!

Cheers Christopher.
DeleteExcellent looking terrain and terrain mat! And of course your Brunswickers are lovely as well
ReplyDeleteThanks very much Nick.
DeleteGreat stuff Pat! I Love Brunswick troops - and you've painted them beautifully!
ReplyDeleteMuch appreciated Jay.
DeleteThe Brunswickers are looking fantastic, great to see it coming along.
ReplyDeleteThe gaming area is brilliant as usual.
You just need to ensure they don't eat your dog.
Thanks Paul, lol I guess they got pretty hungry on campaign.
DeleteEverything looks awesome! Looks like you got a real nice wargaming room too.
ReplyDeleteThanks John, yes very pleased with the man cave.
DeleteThe terrain looks wonderful. Even better with your lovely figures on it!
