About Me

My photo
London, United Kingdom, United Kingdom
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).

Hussars Done!

I succeeded in finishing the hussars today. Well, the painting, varnishing and sticking onto bases at any rate. I'll do the basing gunk stuff along with the cuirassiers and commanders when they're all painted.

So, some pics to keep you going:






Tomorrow will be a very early start to get across London for a lift to Leighton Buzzard for a FoGR match. My Koreans are getting a much needed run out over 3 games. It should be interesting as I don't think I've used them for FoGR before. Also because the list I've come up with is a bit bonkers. Or maybe genius. Probably bonkers.

  2. Very nice hussars Tamsin. I've worked on SYW hussars and they are fiddly to the max!
    Good luck with the Koreans.

    They really do look the business, just right for tearing around the wargames table causing mayhem!

    1. Thanks Peter! Three cavalry to a (30x30) base is a bit crowded, but that's what the rules I'm using call for :)
