SYW Prussian Fusilier Regiment #39
Today a 23 figure battalion from Prussian Fusilier Regiment #39 marches off the painting desk as work on 18mm projects continues. Figures in today's line up are Blue Moon foot led by a Eureka mounted colonel. The Blue Moon figures are AWI Hessians pressed into service for the King. This battalion of the 39th carries the colonel's color.
The sister battalion for the 39th is in work and should be mustering out from the painting desk soon. With several successive weekends out of town and away from the workbench, production has slowed tremendously but activity is beginning to pick up once again. Lots of figures on the workbench including the fielding of a few battalions of 28mm Napoleonics from which I received a little help.
On the gaming front, not much action at the gaming table outside of a couple of boardgaming sessions. One planned for today, in fact. The Combat at Foz de Arource remains set up on the table with thoughts of running through the scenario a time or too before packing up in anticipation of the next hosted game.
Good strength to that yellow. Your slow down is still massively faster than my best pace :-)
ReplyDeleteGlad you like the shade of yellow, Norm. Sometimes yellows and reds are difficult but these fellas look ok.
DeleteA great looking regiment!

Thank you!
DeleteVery effective Yellow, Johnathon. Its a colour I have always struggled with, well done.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much, Robbie! I may have needed a second coat of yellow in some places.
DeleteAnother great looking unit! As Norm said your slow pace is still a good lick!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Much appreciated, Iain! Perhaps my pace will pick up again now that a lot of travel is behind me?
DeleteGreat work Jonathan!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteSplendid and impressive mix of blue and yellow, superb addition!
ReplyDeleteBlue and yellow is a pleasing combination, to my eye. Thanks a lot, Phil!
DeleteI'm with Norm, you're pumping stuff out at a very respectable pace.
ReplyDeleteCould be faster, Markus, but tough getting to the painting desk as much as I have been away. Travel schedule should be returning to normal.
DeleteVery impressive and wonderful troops once again, Jonathan.
ReplyDeleteYou are very kind, Dean!
DeleteEin schönes neues Regiment für den König!
ReplyDeleteJa ja!
DeleteEnviable results and output—inspires one to kick the summer painting slump!
ReplyDeletePleased to provide a little inspiration, Ed!
DeleteAnother fine unit Jon. It looks like we should have plenty of figures to push for Zorndorf in August. Hopefully we can find some time in July to try your Peninsular scenario one last time.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jake. With the frequency you pump out Russians, we should be in good shape by the August battle anniversary. I better begin working on a scenario.
DeleteAnother go at FdA in July would be fun!
Another fine regiment Jonathan!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mike!
DeleteAnother superb unit Jonathan, and a great way to round out the first six months of the year.
ReplyDeleteQuite kind of you, Mark. My output is dwarfed by your massive production schedule. You are a painting machine!
DeleteSuperb looking regiment Jonathan!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Battalion #2 is nearing completion.
DeleteLooks great per usual. I like blue moon figures.
ReplyDeleteBeen meaning to ask, that’s one long base right?
Thank you, Stew! Yes, one long base with 120mm frontage.
DeleteLovely painting Jonathan.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
