Looking over the Zorndorf OB, the Prussians could use a few squadrons of hussars. Next off the painting desk for the 18mm SYW project will be a dozen Prussian hussars from Zieten's regiment.
Before the hussars can muster off the painting desk, a demi-brigade of French line infantry (39 figures) for the 1799 project will next emerge from the workbench. Several other BMUs are in work too so expect more units filing off from the painting desk in the coming weeks.
Very nice Jonathan...
ReplyDeleteI do like the Prussian Fusiliers... they have some very nice facing colours.
All the best. Aly
Thanks, Aly! Prussian fusiliers sure knew how to press!

The 39th will be easy to identify on a crowded battlefield.
Deleteanother lovely looking unit, progress has slowed across the whole of the UK with a heat wave and the World Cup 🤪
ReplyDeleteThank you! Warming up in the Pacific Northwest too. Monday high around 90F. Later in the week, highs approach 100F.
DeleteExcellent looking addition to the Prussian force Jonathan
ReplyDeleteYellow breeches and waistcoat make for a fun and striking regiment to paint. Thank you!
DeleteNice looking regiment.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteFantastic work Jonathan. Look forward to seeing them in action.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you use for your backdrop? Is it a photo box or similar?
Very kind of you! We will see them in action late August for a refight of Zorndorf.
DeleteAs for the backdrop, yes, it is the background in a light box. This backdrop came standard with the light box.
You know that this is going to be staunch, Jonathan...any group of men brave enough to wear yellow pants in public has to be recognised as fearsome.
ReplyDeleteSame should hold for those fusiliers decked out in rose and fuschia too!
DeleteBeautiful as always, Jon! Your colors really pop.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Scott!
DeleteLooking forward to seeing these on the table. Looking excellent .
ReplyDeleteThanks! I look forward to seeing both armies arrayed for battle. That should be pleasant sight!
DeleteA very smart looking unit, Jon!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Peter!
