18mm Blue Moon AWI Hessians as Prussians

Earlier I painted a Blue Moon Hessian fusilier regiment as a proxy for SYW Prussians.  I liked the Blue Moon Hessian figures so much that I ordered enough Hessian musketeers to build one regiment of Prussian musketeers as a test.  Below are three photos of the Prussian (AWI Hessian) musketeers fielded as Infantry Regiment #26 including the combined grenadiers. 

Nice figures and I'll be ordering more as a less expensive alternative to my standard Eureka SYW Prussians.

    1. I know! Certainly much better than the Eureka Russians. Yuck! The Blue Moon Hessians are even more compatible with the Eureka Austrians than are the Eureka Prussians. I like the Blue Moon AWI range alot.
