What I have been up to - 6mm Napoleonics en masse

I've been very absent from this blog over the last three months as I have been taking part in the annual Analogue Hobbies Paint Challenge from mid December to late March.  

My focus for those three months has been on filling out my Peninsular Napoleonics using the 6mm Adler Miniature figures (now available from H&R).  I say filling out as I already have most of the British forces required as well as some Spanish Line infantry in the white uniform and bicorne that were painted close to 20 years ago.   More on these guys later.

I plan on showing the units completed on here over the next few weeks - by contingent.  But I thought I would kick it off with a group shot of all that was painted through the period of the challenge.

Within those photos are a total of 2951 infantry figures and 578 mounted figures making up the following units.

I will post photos of each contingent in a series of posts over the next few weeks.

I also finished basing the remaining Pendraken 10mm Mahdists that I was working on in my last post on this blog.   

Dismounted Savarin Knights for the Sassanids

The latest Sassanids painted are 3 bases of heavy foot dismounted Savarin Knights.  They do not appear in the Impetus lists but after seeing these on Dr Phil Hendry’s wonderful blog earlier in the year I decided that I would get them anyway and find a way to make them fit into the army.   These are Aventine figures with the banner and the shields from LBMS as always.  

I am participating in the Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge again and these were my first entry for the year.
