15mm French Carabiniers


Today I finished these two regiments of carabiniers for John's army. All figures are AB.



1st Carabiniers






2nd Carabiniers





All the Carabiniers

 

That finishes the French line cavalry. Now I am painting some Polish and Saxon horsemen, and after that I will move on to the French guard cavalry!

15mm French Cuirassiers

I know 2020 has been a tough year for everyone, but unless you have young children, you are not getting the full craziness of this year. I went from having five days a week to paint to ONE day. Mondays from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM I have to myself. The rest of the week I have kids with me. I am afraid it does not make for much production.

That's a long way to say that these 48 cuirassiers took me a month to paint. I am happy with how they turned out, but I have to find some way to improve my pace.


1st Cuirassiers





4th Cuirassiers






7th Cuirassiers






Polish Cuirassiers





The French carabiniers are up next. After then will come Polish light cavalry and Saxons. John's French army is taking shape.

15mm French Hussars

 These three regiments of hussars are for John's Napoleonic French army. I wanted a good mix of colors for these, so I went with the 2nd, 7th, and 9th Hussars. 


2nd Hussars







7th Hussars








9th Hussars





All three regiments

I am now starting on four regiments of cuirassiers and two regiments of carabiniers.

15mm French Dragoons

I continue to plug away on John's Napoleonic French collection. These three dragoon regiments are the 2nd, 13th, and 20th Dragoons. I chose these three to give a nice variety in uniform appointments.





2nd Dragoons







13th Dragoons







20th Dragoons





The hussars are up next. Then I get to move on to heavy cavalry!
