The Austrians are 15mm Old Glory and are being painted and based for Black Powder and my first Regiment, IR-1 "Der Kaiser" will be my first SYW Regiment of the "Summer of Horse & Musket!"
So far I'm pleased with how they're turning out. And considering I have tons and tons more Regiments to paint, I can't complain at the progress so far.
The assembly line! |

Unpainted misfits... |
AWI British....24th Foot Supplementals from my Battle of Hubbardton units. |
My original Battle of Hubbardton troops. They will be rebased on 30mm square bases for Black Powder. Hence my need to paint 8 more troopers! |
The Regiment assembled! |
These are probably the nicest Old Glory sculpts I've seen. The detail is wonderful and they are, for the most part, anatomically correct. |
Kit. Remember this is not finished! I still have many details to paint on, and add shading to the kit and musket stock. |
I like the looks on their faces. I doubt very much they looked like this going into action at Lobositz!! These are more apt for a parade than a battle. |
the new bases prior to prep and painting |
surprise! I found these 6mm painted Adler figs laying around. Adorable! |
More to follow as I finish the Regiment up! Huzzah!
I'd say they're coming along nicely.
ReplyDeleteI like the very dynamic fell of the Austrians.
Thanks, Ben! The Prussians are also very dynamic looking too. I like these sculpts best of any of the Old Glory 15mm guys.
