In a bit of a messy period re periods and painting. I've got the Byzantine moulds back so should be getting on with then, meanwhile sidetracked by the 7 Years War...

| Prussian gun crew, very much basic wargames standard! |
 |
| There are four artillery figures for each of the powers. |

| I'm thinking of doing small armies of four nations - Austria, Prussia, Britain and France. Garrison don't do Russians and I probably won't do a Hanoverian army. The Austrian one will be done last because I already have an Austrian army that I bought on ebay - very low chance of doing another... |
One thing I will be looking at is very small armies - 3 12 man infantry units, 2 6 man cavalry squadrons and 1 gun crew with a choice of 3 guns!
These look great Rob.
ReplyDeleteVersatile figures and ordnance for a range of uses.

Thank you. One advantage of the guns is their versality - they aren't as restricted as detailed models of specific guns.
DeleteI love the Garrison SYW range, lovely little figures, I have a fair few Prussians and Austrians sitting in the "to do" pile, must get around to them as they are a super range.
ReplyDeleteI should have done something with this range 20 years ago, it's always been neglected. Same with the Normans and Saxons. Etc.
DeleteThe SYW range has some lovely figures. Looking forward to seeing what you do.
ReplyDeleteProbably not as much as I would want - it's not a peiod I've ever really been able to mantain enthusiasm for painting...
DeleteVery nice, I agree about the Garrison 7YW range. I was v. pleased with the French I bought from you, must get the rest painted and come back for more!
ReplyDeleteGlad you like them.
