late imperial roman legionarius
Well it has been awhile and I only have myself to blame. I did what I always proclaim NOT to do. White folk have a saying ‘don’t bite off more than you can chew’. Well thats what happened with the WWII German Artillery I was working on. It was a big job, which made it…
moar napoleonic french unit prep
I’ve started to hit my hobby stride again. I’ve had some fun prepping these 15mm Napoleonic French from Miniature Figurines. These are more command and an infantry to send off to the painting service. I finally have all the stuff ready to go off to the the other side of the world and get painted…
napoleonic french unit prep
Well it has been awhile and I do have excuses. Sadly none of the excuses are good or really even matter. My time has been limited so blogging gets the short end. I have still been doing hobby tho. I have been prepping minis to send to a painting service. Typically I prefer painting to…
napoleonic french mounted dragoons w/helmet
So I was diligently working away on some of my 15mm french napoleonic minifigs and I thought ‘wouldn’t it be nice to get someone else to paint these?’. So I started looking into foreign, cheap-labor painting services. I’ll give it a try and report back the results. I’m assuming the quality just won’t make me…
napoleonic french light infantry w/crested helm
I am exceedingly happy to announce a new unit. This is Miniature Figurines 15mm French Light Infantry, Crested Helmet (Short Gaiters) code 52F. Not much to say about these guys but sometimes it is hard to tell if the command group is leading the men or being forced to the guillotine at the point of…
napoleonic french fusiliers w/crested helm
I just finished a new unit to add to my growing Napoleonic French collection. This is Miniature Figurines 15mm Napoleonic French Fusiliers, Crested Helmet (Long Gaiters) code 51F. Up next is the Sassanid Persians, I am working on some light infantry, bowmen and slingers.
napoleonic french grenadiers w/trousers & hanging plume
In the ongoing effort to digitally record my Napoleonic collection, here is another previously painted unit. This is Miniature Figurines 15mm Napoleonic French Grenadiers, Bearskin/Trousers (Hanging Plume) advancing, code 42F.
napoleonic french grenadiers w/gaiters
Here is a unit I painted a while ago, you can tell because it is not in my new school style (block painted) but in the tedious, mind numbing old school style (3 colour Dallimore Foundry style highlights). Don’t get me wrong, it looks good, but the price is your soul. This is from Miniature…
napoleonic french chasseurs w/shako
I just finished another unit. This is code 50F Miniature Figurines 15mm Napoleonic French Chasseurs with Shako for my early imperial army. I really love the ‘advancing’ pose, it reflects such purpose, dynamism and élan. Next up on the workbench is some Sassanid Persian Horse Archers.
napoleonic french carabiniers w/mirleton
Work moves apace with my French revolutionary and early Empire army. I just finished a new unit. Out of the 14 infantry units in the range, this is the ninth. The next unit I’m working on is some Sassanian Persians.
