About Me

A mythical beast - a female wargamer! I got back into wargaming in the summer of 2011 after a very, very long break and haven't looked back since. I must admit that I seem to be more of a painter/collector than a gamer, but do hope to correct that at some point in the near future. My gaming interests span the ages, from the "Biblical" era all the way through to the far future. I enjoy games of all sizes, from a handful of figures up to major battles (see my megalomaniacally sized Choson Korean and Russian Seven Years War armies).

Russian Musketeers Day 5 - Finished

Woohoo! They're done. So, on with the pics.


First of all, Peter B asked for a pic of them with the grenadiers I painted a couple of weeks ago:



Now, without the grenadiers:


Voronejskiy Regiment:






Viatskiy Regiment:






And getting in a little bit closer on the command stands:






Lastly, a pic of my SYW Russian collection to date:


That's 6 regiments of cavalry (2 cuirassiers, 1 dragoon, 1 horse grenadier, 2 hussars); 12 regiments of foot (8 musketeers, 4 grenadiers); 2 artillery pieces and 3 commanders. In all, about three quarters of what it will be when I finish painting the figures I currently have in the queue.

  7. I'm always tardy! Fantastic Tamsin, what a great army! I'd love to paint SYW Russians one day and this is good inspiration. We had SYW going locally for a bit with Maurice but it went cold.

  10. Looking good Tamsin and the figures too. Very effective en mass. I need to get back on my 15mm AWI French, but not just yet.

  11. @ Monty - thank you! I've been enjoying painting this army up and these four regiments have actually gone up a notch compared to my original batch which people loved :)

    @ Stefan - cheers! :)

    @ Jon - thanks! I don't know where King of the Battlefield is available from, but will check for you :)

    @ Dannoc - cheers! Only another eight regiments of foot, two/three cuirassiers, a horde of hussars, a steppe of Cossacks, some guns and some commanders to go before I call this army complete :)
