Over the next few days/weeks I'll be doing a series of posts showing off all my various armies as they stand right now.
To kick things off, here are my Seven Years War Russians:
|
Cuirassiers - Novotroitskiy; Kazanskiy; (3rd) Minichovskiy; Kievskiy |
|
Rear - Voronezhkiy; Schlusselburgskiy Front - Apsheronskiy; Astrakhanskiy |
|
1st, 2nd, 3rd & 4th Grenadiers |
|
Rostovskiy; Uglitskiy; Tchernigovskiy; Novgorodskiy |
|
Rear - Muromskiy; Viatskiy Front - Arkhangelogorodskiy; Riazanskiy |
|
Serbskiy & Vengerskiy hussars; Sankt Peterburgskiy horse grenadiers; Tverskiy dragoons; Zeltiy & Slobodskiy hussars |
I didn't include the two loose guns or the fusiliers in this round-up.
I have got an order of cavalry reinforcements from Essex on the way - four more regiments of dragoonsor horse grenadiers; two more regiments of hussars; a spare hussar command pack to paint up as a command stand; and two wagons
Fantastic, great idea. May do mine later in the year

ReplyDeleteTop looking troops Tamsin.
ReplyDeleteWhen you see all of them together, it makes all the hard work you put in seem worthwhile! Well done!
ReplyDeleteGreat job with your kick-off.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Week :-)
What a great idea and a great army to kick it off!
ReplyDeleteSuper painting, and I'm sure Fred's worried! You do know, I suppose, that they tended to discard the green coat for comfort in battle, and fought in a red jecket?
ReplyDeleteReal impressive - love the effect of these en-mass.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutly superb!!
ReplyDeleteThanks! :)
Delete@ Martin C - cheers! Look forward to seeing yours :)
ReplyDelete@ Neil Scott - thanks! :)
@ Millsy - cheers old boy! Go on - you know you want to :)
@ Clint - thanks! :)
@ fireymonkeyboy - cheers! I'd get even more done if I really committed myself [and didn't have to go to work...] :)
@ Squad Painter - thanks! Swiss - for the French army? :)
@ Ski - cheers! :)
@ Pete - thanks! :)
@ Thomas F - cheers! :)
@ Ray - thanks! :)
@ Herkybird - it certainly does :)
@ Whisk - cheers! And a happy new week to you too :)
@ Da Gobbo Grotto - it seemed like a good idea on Saturday, although now I've realised just how many of these posts I'll need to do... :)
@ Alexander H-W - thanks! Sadly, Essex don't do the infantry in summer order [just the red long-sleeved waistcoat] :)
@ Dannoc - if they're impressive now, just think what they'll be like when my megalomania is satisfied [1 more cuirassier regiment, 17 more musketeers, 4 more horse grenadiers, 2 more dragoons, 4 more hussars, more guns! and a horde of cossacks. You know, just enough to represent all the units that fought in the SYW!!] :)
