Got another regiment done for my Light Brigade, this time a hussar regiment - the 11th Hussars - 'Prince Albert's Own' , nicknamed the 'Cherrypickers' or the 'Cherubums' due to their crimson trousers. The figures are of course Strelets , only one photo of them as the battery packed up in my camera . Next up their (in) famous commander Lord Cardigan.
Excellent brushwork Sir!
ReplyDeleteThanks only needing six of them helped getting them done in short order.
DeleteAnd a tiny Nolan galloping forward with the order?
ReplyDeleteHis lordship was picky but I think he'd approve of the brushwork on these.
Yes I think there must be a Nolan figure in the pipeline.
DeleteExcellent work there Tony. 'The Charge of the Light Brigade' is one of my favorite movies.
ReplyDeleteYes I remember going to see it as a child .
DeleteWhat spirited fellows they look,an excellent effort sir!
ReplyDeleteAlan
One or two rather exuberant poses but rather nice figures I think .
DeleteWhich is Flashman?
ReplyDeleteAt the time of the Crimea he had left the 11th under a cloud after a run in with Cardigan I think and was shepherding a minor European noble around the war zone . however I do have a Flashman figure - - http://tonystoysoldiers.blogspot.com/2016/07/homage-to-flashman.html
