Here you can see the next step on the great redoubt. Wolfpits in
front of the ravine and just to show the size three ranks of selfmade
Garde Du Corps (20 ranks in a file). Yesterday we had a painting evening
and I was able to nearly finish 18 Strelets Garde Du Corps. Well not
the best figures on the market, but beside the conversions we made the
only available figures on the subject.
So far I have
already 1200 painted Russian infantry in my collection, mostly Esci with
several sets of Zvezda. I think that is enough for two batallions on
the flank of the redoubt.
Interesting what are you using for regular Russian infantry? Zvesda only make guards.
AntwortenLöschenHi Conrad,
AntwortenLöschenfor the regulars I use the Esci. But the Zvezda without plume would also go. Beside this on the flank of the redoubt was the Ismalowski guard regiment, so a lot of Zvezda's would be needed. The Zastrow attacked the guards while the Garde du Corps went for the redoubt itself.
BTW, some metals from Art-Miniaturen, Kennington, Hinton-Hunt etc. will give some more life into the group.
cheers
