A few Prussians that are showing a good bit of progress.
Von Lutzow freicorp fusilier battalion are on their bases with sand applied.
However after the recent game of plancenoit I vowed to increase my landwehr in my army. 4th battalion of 6th Silesian landwehr 6 figures shy of completion!
I'm taking a break as I maxed out on them over a 1-2 week period. I plan to have the brigade finished by the end of March, I've cleaned up most of the other battalion and have a few ready to paint.
Also a wee bit of conversion fun, I switched the heads of the 2 AB prussian ADC and it worked pretty well, creating an infantry ADC or staff officer full dress and a hussar Officer with bicorne.
The other command is only one conversion, a Shako head added instead of cap as I already had the figure used in cap and the other guy will receive a satchel and become a Feldjaeger officer.
So that's it for the moment
Happy wargaming!
Best Paul

Nice work, Paul. Lutzow's is a fun unit to paint for some relief from the Prussian Blue!
Masterful work, Paul.
very nice Paul! Good to see the battalions all lines up.
Lovely !
Fantastic, just fantastic!
Wonderful stuff!
I'm always impressed by the level of character and detail you can pack into a 15mm miniature. Absolutely wonderful.
Thanks Peter, yes they are definitely a nice change. I should apologise for the poor pictures. I took them from my phone.
Cheers jonathan, very kind of you!
Thanks Ken, I think once I get to the end of the landwehr I'll do a prussian parade to see how far on I am?
Thanks Jacko, much appreciated!
Thanks Phil, glad you like them!!!
Thanks Ian, very much appreciated!
Thanks Millsy,
I'm really happy how they are coming together now. Glad you like them!
Looking fantastic, as ever Paul. Need to organise that head swap tutorial we spoke about!
Every nice Paul. - every time I see your work I yearn for 15 mm again!!
Beautiful work, these are just lovely!
The Lutzow's are fantastic, and very hard to make black look this good. Exellent job on the conversions. Setting a completion date is wise as it helps you stay motivated.
Awesome work Paul!
Cheers Jamie, yip we should do that.
Thanks Carlo, I do really enjoy 15's however if I had the money and the space I think I would do 28's. You can see so much more on a figure.
Thanks chasseur, I wish I could bump out as many troops as you to the quality you get! Your a machine!!!
Thanks John, I'll get better pics when they are finished. Yeah I've marked a star on my painting calendar when I want to have both done by. I'll let you know how I get on.
Thanks Rodger glad you like them buddy!!!
Excellent work yet again Paul!
Christopher
You've absolutely nailed the black - can't wait to see the complete unit
EXCELLENT!
What figures ( make ) did you use for Lutzow's chaps ? I used Essex for mine but these guys look great.
Thanks Christopher!
Cheers Ru!
Cheers Gary!
Glad you like th tarty,
I used the AB landwehr figures with heads swapped. A lot of pain on the figures cutting and drilling the heads and adding backpacks etc but they came out well. You can see the ongoing conversions here:
