Well, the Persians and Bolt action germans still sit on my painting table, awaiting their turn, as the 6mm Napoleonic Austrian cavalry has jumped the queue!
I fancied a bit of a change this week, so dug out some cavalry from the large pile of unpainted Austrians and managed to get them done!
Unfortunately i have now ran out of bases, so the 10th Hussars will have to wait a bit longer.
Heres some pics of progress this week....
First of all i upgraded the 3rd Hussars to 2 separate units, as it was the normal practice for large Austrian cavalry regiments to split up their units, a such a large mass was found to be unwieldy.
The 2nd Schwarzenburg Uhlans. Another very large cavalry unit, and again divided into 2 "divisions".
Heres a shot of all my Cavalry painted up so far.
Still to be done are the 10th Hussars (another large unit) and the 5th Chevaux Ledger, a slightly smaller unit.
The Infantry forces are nearly complete, with only 2 line Bns left to do, and 3 militia units.
The light infantry is in the process of being re-organised slightly, which will stretch the figures further and reduce the amount of painting still to be done.
Hopefully within the next month or so i will be putting in a new order to Adler for some French troops to oppose them!
Have a good weekend,
Steve
The full force so far can be seen HERE
These are inspiring, Adler cavalry are really nice to paint
