Hello again,
Just a quick one. As I mentioned before I have started playing Sharp Practice 2 for Napoleonic skirmish games. The rules are a lot of fun and that has got me motivated to get back to painting some Napoleonics.
These stoic chaps have been on my painting table for over a year sitting about 80% done. So I put in a couple of days to finally finish them off.
I give you the 1st battalion, New Ingermanland infantry regiment.
All the miniatures are Perry Miniatures plastics. They are lovely figures!
With this finished battalion I now have three complete battalions and a couple of artillery pieces and limbers completed. On the painting table I have another battalion at about 30% complete plus a unit of Russian Dragoons which I'm looking forward to painting.
I am still a long way off getting in a game of Black Powder with these chaps but Sharp Practice will keep me busy until then.
Oh after taking the photos I realized that I had attached the regiment flag upside down Doh!
Anyway I have spare flags so it was easily fixed.
Flags are by GMB designs by the way.
Cheers
Neil
