Some old armies

A bit of photography work to finally bring some of my older armies onto this site, or update their photos in some cases. The Man-o-War fleets have all been re-shot and so have the 40k Blood Angels. The new addition are my old 40k Eldar which got funky new bases some years ago. Vehicles still need to be touched up and photographed then. Some samples below but click the links for the whole lot.

13th century Europeans

July was medieval madness. I pushed through a host of figures to form a generic base for 13th century European armies (or Crusaders. Usable for Saga Age of Crusades or Baron’s Wars. They have their own page here now.

I finished my generic force of the Greek Cities in Saga Age of Alexander. They now have their own page here.

Prussian Video

As for the Anglo-Dutch, I made a video fly-over of the entire Prussian army. Give it a watch :)

Prussians are done!

I am reached the second major milestone in my Waterloo project: The Prussian Army of the Lower Rhine is complete!

The last unit to be painted was the 24. Infanterie Regiment. I also added a few more vignettes, allied observers, and Generalmajor von Mueffling meeting his counterpart of Wellington’s staff MG Sir Barnes. You can find a full breakdown of the Prussian army on their page.

Prussian 1. Brigade

I finished the 12. Infanterie Regiment and the 1. Westfaelisches Landwehr Regiment, both with the usual three battalions and attached Jaeger. Only one regiment left to complete the Prussian Army of the Lower Rhine (or at least the portion of it that made it to Waterloo. Final sprint!

12. IR was in transition from a reserve unit (2. Brandenburg) and thus mostly wears the grey/black uniforms of the reserve. Officers, NCO and some troopers have received the new blue line uniforms already. Figures are from Calpe Miniatures.

1. Westfaelisches Landwehr Regiment had a unique uniform with a short blue jacket and stovepipe shako with Prussian cross. I converted these from Wargames Atlantic plastic reservists with shaved down Warlord shakos.

Last Prussian Cavalry

I finished the three Prussian cavalry regiments that were directly attached to the infantry brigades at Waterloo. This wraps up the cavalry for my collection with just one brigade of infantry left to paint.

From the top we have 4. Husaren Regiment attached to 1. Brigade (I Korps), two squadrons each of 11. Husaren Regiment attached to 5. and 6. Brigade (II Korps), and finally the uniquely-uniformed 3. Schlesisches (Silesian)Landwehr Kavallerie Regiment attached in squadrons to 15. and 16. Brigade (IV Korps).
