15mm British Foot Guard, Rifles, and Rockets!

The blog has been quiet, but I have been busy as a (bzzz) bee.  John's Waterloo army will have two battalions of foot guards and two battalions of rifles.

The AB Miniatures rocket artillery came without actual rocket artillery.  I cannot find any castings for this anywhere in their range, so I broke out the modeling supplies and scratchbuilt a couple of rocket launchers.

Next up are the Dutch and Belgian line infantry regiments!

Long Drought

The blog has been quiet, but not for lack of painting.  I have been putting in a lot of 4-6 hour days at the painting desk, trying to push through two large commissions before the end of summer.  They are progressing, but not nearly as quickly as I had hoped

I hope to have more content for the blog soon.  In the meantime, here are some 6mm ACW troops I painted in December.  I love these little Baccus strips, and I look forward to some day getting them on the table.

 

The Redcoats Are Here!

324 British line infantry.  Whew.  I am sure it seemed like a good idea at the time, but now I never want to see another red coat again.  So what's up next?  Two battalions of foot guards.
