Guns and Hussars

Three more items have captured the attention of the painting butterfly this week.

First, there are two British Peninsular War artillery sets each comprising a gun, four crew and the limber (with two riders and a foot gunner).

These are lovely sets with the action of the gunners loading and firing the guns beautifully captured.

The limber drivers in their fatigue caps make for a different model.

The completion of these finishes the British Peninsular project (although there is a British four-wheeled ammunition wagon that is really tempting).

Then as discussed in a previous post, are the two expanded and rebased regiments of Russian hussars for the Crimean War. As with the dragoons, three figures were added to each unit. 

And just to fill up some post space, here are a few pictures from our Napoleonic we played last Sunday. This was the first outing of my French 1812-13 collection.
