The first Prussian Infantry 'in the manner of Featherstone'

 


Well after a busy week of 'real life' I've manged to get the first Prussian Infantry Regiment done . It comprises of 18 infantrymen, drummer, standard bearer and 2 officers.


I also painted up the first Prussian Brigadier , again an Irregular Miniature .


Here he is inspecting the Regiment on parade.


Having found 'all correct' they march off to barracks , I've started painting up the French and am thinking about the next order to Irregular . I have sent an order to Tradition for some of their 'Willie' figures for the armies High Command.

  1. Super parade of the first regiment for your project, really very nice work and I like the miniatures a lot. The brigadier is a haughty looking chap, he won;t stand for any slacking that's for sure!

    1. They have turned out well , I think the gloss varnish finishes them off.

  4. Very nice....I need some Prussian infantry to fill out my own Germanic toy soldier army...but in 54mm. Those would be ideal if a little larger lol

    1. For my 54mm I ended up using 54mm Prince August 'Toy soldier ' mold and Irregular 54mm Prussian heads from their 'bits' range.
