Craig's Prussians 1

Sorry for the lack of updates, I am working my way through a Silesian Kurassier regiment at the moment as well as a few other bits and pieces however time is pretty short so my on line visits have been fleeting. I also have a couple of battle reports from games before the festive season to upload at some point.

Thankfully I do have some cool pics to post. I've exchanged a couple of emails recently with Craig from Australia who is a fellow 15mm Napoleonic fan from over on the GdB forum. Craig sent over a few pics of his work and has very kindly let me show them on my blog. Loads of inspiration for anyone looking to build a Prussian army of the 1812-15 period!!!

  

1st up the Brandenburg hussars, cracking painting!

  

Craig has used deep blues on all his figures and it works really well. This is what I always intend to do when sitting down to paint my Prussians but almost always chicken out with the excuse of scale!

  

6lb horse artillery battery complete with limber, this pic reminds me of Von B's early Prussians.

  

Fusiler IR3 2nd East Prussian. I'm pretty sure all the figures used are from AB. 

  

Garde jager battalion skirmishers

  

II battalion IR12 Brandenburg, you need plenty of reserve for a Prussians army.

  

III battalion 4th Silesian landwehr infantry regiment. And from mid-late 1813 you need plenty of these guys too.

  

III battalion 14th Silesian landwehr infantry regiment

IV battalion 14th Silesian landwehr infantry regiment

  

Mecklenberg-Strelitz hussars.

The Hussars are my favourite however brilliant figures all round Craig and I look forward to seeing more of your collection.
