Slitherine

My Swedes were very kindly featured by Tim Porter recently in one of his After Action Reports. The Finns featured heavily due to their sterling performance but my other BGs have demanded some publicity too so here they are – hope you like them.

German Cuirassiers with Commanded Shot wings



Swedish Latta Rytarre supported by a BG of Karbinrytarre



The Karbinrytarre



The Dragoons – the mounted guy with the helmet is from TYC211



The Finns in case you missed them



One of the Superior Infantry BGs



The other Superior Infantry BG



The Average BG who sealed the victory



The Artillery - the standard bearer is a conversion



The Generals. Rupert & Cromwell have been pressed into service for Sweden



Gustavus leads from the front – the standard bearer is a conversion



And guess what? All the figures are from Testudo!

Very nice. One day I must work out how to load photo's so I can show off the professional paint job I had done on my Testudo Dragoons, as Swedes, New Model, and Imperialist/Catholic League.

Hammy's original link is the one I follow - and if I can do it, it must be easy!

Will give it a try.

Some great work there! The colours really stand out. Absolutely superb painting!

I've never thought of doing the pike shafts different colours. Makes sense & looks good. Maybe I should have another go at my English Longbowmen bows.

You are very kind - thank you. The detail and definition of the figures makes them really easy to paint - especially with washes and highlights.

Thanks - it does take a bit longer but I think it's worth it. I've done the same with my HYW English longbowmen. When I get some time I'll post a photo - again I think the effect is quite good.
