Recently completed.

While there haven't been much action of the napoleonic kind going on here I have done some painting at least. Three units of french light infantry, these were on sale and I bought three boxes on a whim last Christmas. They have been in a half complete state for a long time but I finally completed them. I did some head swaps and put some pre-bardin style shakos and bearskins on the elite companies. I also built a bugler from a skirmisher with victrix bugler arms.
The old guard was a christmas present , they have been completed for a long time but have never left my project shelf.
I built a unit of prussian hussars by simply putting left over heads from a prussain infantry set on french hussars. They might not be completely accurate but they will suffice until plastic prussian cavalry sets are released or my hobby budget improves enough to buy metal cavalry.

Coldstream guards, Commission complete.

Quite satisfied with the result. Took a week from start to finish.

Commissioned painting.

I'm painting a huge unit of Brittish for a friend, 48 minis, the Coldstream guards. I have painted a lot of fantasy minis for him during the last year. With him getting into napoleonics and commissioning me to paint them its a win-win-win situation. First, more napoleonics players, very good! Second, for every mini I paint I can buy two more for myself. And third, well my friend gets his minis painted and get gaming quick. He is looking at doing the whole British 1st infantry division, the foot guards.
Here are a few I completed during the weekend. I'm quite satisfied with the result, I hope my commissioner is to.

Latest painted.

I haven't had any big "must do" projects the latest days so I have been doing some random painting here and there. Fifteen casualty-markers are done, five of them are metal Prussians from Warlord games. Now we might get out of using dice placed next to the unit suffering from casualties.

Also a small unit of dismounted Dragoons. These models come with the Perry Miniatures Dragoons set. I really like the look of them. Sort of like an Napoleonic spec-ops unit, even thou they are far from it I reckon. I have one more unit of these to paint.
Also on a side note, Hekke has started painting an unit of Swiss infantry. Using the Perry french infantry set and fallowing the painting-guide in it to make them Swiss looking. 

"Nisses" photos.

Warning! Loads of pictures ahead, some of awkward looking gamers and an very messy club venue.
