15mm Chassuers a Cheval

I have started a new 15mm Napoleonics commission, this time for John in Australia. I am just painting French and British armies for him, but each will be about the same size as the forces I painted for Glenn.

First off the painting bench are three regiments of Chasseurs a Cheval. AB figures were a joy to paint, of course!

1st Chasseurs a Cheval











7th Chasseurs a Cheval









12th Chasseurs a Cheval





All three regiments together!

 


I painted all the light cavalry horses at once, so lancers, hussars, and dragoons should show up on the blog pretty soon.

1/72 Napoleonic Russian Cuirassiers

When I was painting the 1/72 Seven Years War armies, I enjoyed the Zvezda artillery set so much that I decided to try my hand at some more of their figures. These 1812 Russian cuirassiers fit the bill!







I think they look great, although without a polyester coating, I'm not sure how resilient they will be on the tabletop.
