Finished: 15mm Seven Years War Russian Infantry



And so the final nine line infantry regiments roll off the paint table and into the box files. It's been a long haul, but I have now painted every Russian regiment which fought in the Seven Years War (apart from Suvalov's Observation Corps). The only additions I might make in future are more Cossacks, some converged grenadiers, more artillery and the Observation Corps.

Here are some pics of the individual regiments.


Nizhegorodskiy



This regiment fought at Gross-Jagersdorf, Palzig and Kunersdorf.


Nizovskiy

Permskiy

Sibyrskiy

Smolenskiy

Suzdalskiy



This regiment fought at Gross-Jagersdorf and Zorndorf.


Troitskiy

Vologdaskiy



This regiment fought at Gross-Jagersdorf, Plazig and Kunersdorf.


Vyborgskiy

All figures are 15mm from Essex Miniatures.



The army, as it stands, now fills at least four box files (I actually have the figures in five boxes, so there is space for the units which I might add in future.

  7. Glorious stuff! I completed a number of these regiments in 28 mm and the greens and reds were truly a delight. The regimental look you achieved is perfect and should provide hours of pleasant gaming.
