Got the Blue Army Hussars done and was going to do a photoshoot outdoors - but it's pouring down ! . So here they are with a seasonal feel. They will be taking to the tabletop this week when 'S' is calling round for a game. (click on photo to enlarge)
What a beautiful picture Tony! You've really put me into the holiday spirit! All the best to you and yours this Christmas!
ReplyDeleteThanks , the Seasons greetings to you and yours.
DeleteLovely stuff - have a good game and a great Xmas!
ReplyDeleteThank you will put the game on this blog I hope.
DeleteAbsolutely lovely! Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteThnk you , all the best to you and yours as well.
DeleteThey have turned out really well, great addition to your army.
ReplyDeleteYes they have turned out well .
DeleteThe hussars look terrific and paint a great scene for the festivities. Are they heading for the barracks and Christmas dinner or riding out to attend a Christmas ball? Have a good Christmas yourself.

They hopefully will be appearing on the tabletop tomorrow.All the best to you and yours.
DeleteNice job on the Cavalry Tony - you must be very pleased.
ReplyDeleteSimple paint job but I'm pleased how they have come out.
DeleteGiven their red livery and the time they entered the establishment they might be nicknamed "Die Weihnachtshusaren": Seasons Greetings!
ReplyDeleteVery apt, I'll make a note of that.
DeleteSplendid figures - fingers crossed they don't suffer from the hex on 'newly painted figures' in your upcoming game.
ReplyDeleteI fear they might
DeleteBeautiful & Christmasy photo.
ReplyDeleteI used to have 2 of these (yep just 2) but when I was in my "Model Soldier" days in the 70's, I converted one into a Bengal lancer with lance strung on its strap behind his arm, and the other, .... the one with the broken leg.... into....something. I still have the one sepoy sans lance and no idea yet how to fit him into my current forces without a complete make over. Some veteran officer's servant from his India days I suppose.
Sadly the weather isn't now, damp and dull. Curious figure whilst painting them I noticed they are unarmed!?, not even a sword - very odd.
DeleteI got out all my unrestored Britain's figures last night with a view to selling them.....but a quick flick through your blog and I've changed my mind:) I'll save them for a rainy day.
