A mixed bag

With a few days off enjoying the festive spirit, it was an opportune moment to get a few figures painted up during some quiet time. So with the upcoming Franco Prussian game I managed to finish a small brigade of French Cavalry. I'll be adding them to one of the existing cavalry divisions for the game but they will actually form part of a second small cavalry division in XII Corps. The figures are all from Outpost, such a shame the range is no longer available as I discovered 2 unpainted units of French infantry which were probably the start of a 3rd Infantry division in XII Corps.




The next batch of painting was some scenic items I picked up from Debris of War. They'll always come in handy for a variety of skirmish games we play.





I do have another 11 of the bags with various crops to paint up, you can never have too many Just need a few more different items for variety. The last painted items were the remainder of my figures for Burrows and Badgers. A second badger, a spaniel, a mole and a squirrel. Loved painting these up and will likely pick up a few more in the new year.




Now back to planning the next stage of the Franco Prussian game.

  3. A very nice pot pourri of different figures Scotty....it's always a bit annoying when a nice range of figures "disappears" 😞

  4. Loads of nice work there Neil. I am sure that Outpost 15mm FPW have been bought and I am pretty sure it's Reiver Castings that's got them.
