Just finished a regiment of regulars for my War of 1812 Army. These are from Brigade games and very nice figures they are. They fit into my collection which is 90% Knuckleduster miniatures. Similar pose, and slim figure. The sculpting and details are very good.
Since they are slightly different i wanted to make them visually different also. I have my 1814 army; so I painted these in the late 1813 uniform. This has red collar and cuffs. Not a major difference, but a difference still.
The regimental colors are on order and have not yet arrived. These will be from Flags of War. Painting the figures I used my new Rapier paints. These were recommended to me and I am extremely happy with them. Nice flat finnish. A great variety of shades and colors. Highly recommended!
Lovely figures! They almost remind me of late Napoleonic Prussians excepting the headgear of course.

They do! I was tempted to build a peninsula war army and use them for Portuguese with new command stands. But no way I am starting a new project.
DeleteNice brushwork on those.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteNice brush work Mark. They look rough and tumble - just right. It's hard to get them dirtied up and have it look correct. You've got it spot on.

ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteVery nicely done Mark!
ReplyDeleteHey Mark, Glad to see you painted 1808 leather gear black. That's what I did with my 54mm figures.
