Well I've buckled down and got the AWI regiment finished, didn't take long once I got started . The figures are Kallistra 12mm and it is the Hesse Cassel Lieb Regiment , not the best photo I'm afraid .(click on photo to enlarge)
They DO look good. I was skeptical when my friend Les went 12mm but I had to confess that when seated at a dining room table the game looked as good and played as well or better than one with larger figures on a crowded larger table.
Yes at (wargaming) distance and on masse - I use 40 figures to a battalion - they look okay . Painting them I don't find fun but they are worth it once done.
I have completed two armies of about 8 battalions per side over the last few years , haven't appeared much on this blog as yet , will post some more soon .
That is a beautiful looking unit-and so small at 12mm.
ReplyDeleteYes they are small , have to be in the mood to paint them .

DeleteVery nice job of painting the 12mm. Your eye sight must be very good to do these figures. Yes, they'l look great en-masse.
ReplyDeleteClose up they are not to good - but at a distance and a lot of them they are okay .
