I've always wanted a journal to record the myriad miniature wargame ideas, plots, and schemes that I come up with. And the couple that actually come into existence. So that's what this blog will be: a journal of ideas, old and new, together with links to things I find interesting. Pull up a mouse or some other pointing device and look around.

First pics of the Fedoran hordes
Just a few snaps. I am NOT a photographer!
The von Steele Hussars
The grenadiers of Regiment von Earle
Generalmajor Norris' pride and joy: the Jagerkorps!
Looks like you did just fine on the photos, Ed. Who's he manufacturer on the Hussars and the Jagers? I'm thinking the latter are RSM, but not sure of the former. Are they RSM as well?
"I am NOT a photographer!": you are too modest. Indeed most of the minis are in focus, a precious point that is not always present! Wish I was as good at painting as you are at taking photos.
Your regiments are very good-looking; of course, just makes me all the more eager to discover the next ones (and their 'opposition').
Glad to see you posting again, if that reflects a lightening of the pressures, requirements and bad surprises in 'The Real world™'.
Wow! What wonderful figures, especially the hussars, which are GORGEOUS. Your photographic skills aren't half bad either. You are indeed too modest as Jean-Louis notes above. Can't wait to see more of your collection as it grows.
Given that you have noted one Blei-Sammeln, Feldmarschallieutenant...stationed in Hess-Homburg as having certain 'leanings' towards the great court of the Empire in Vienna, perchance you would be interested in contributing towards the story at Österreich Über Alles?
Excellent painting! And the pictures are very good as well. Quite enough of each picture is in focus to get a good view of the details of your minis.

ReplyDeleteThanks to both of you. These are all RSM from Dayton Painting Consortium, painted by Fernando Enterprises painting service in Sri Lanka.

Hello there Ed,
ReplyDeleteWow! What wonderful figures, especially the hussars, which are GORGEOUS. Your photographic skills aren't half bad either. You are indeed too modest as Jean-Louis notes above. Can't wait to see more of your collection as it grows.
Best Regards,

They are most likely looking lads. I'm sure that they will perform most bravely on the table top.
ReplyDeleteI like them a lot. What nationality of RSMs are they? I do like that officer pose (which is not what I have with my RSM Hanoverians).
I also like your photos . . . you've "framed" them well.

If you mean the infantry officer in the bottom two pictures, Jeff, that's the Prussian Officer with Cane. I've got a couple of them in my own forces.
ReplyDeleteThe hussars and the jagers are from the RSM Prussian range.
ReplyDeletethose are very attractive units. My compliments to Fernando.
All that is missing is one 'wider' shot taking in the entire mass!
ReplyDeleteQuite a force you are building there Bogey...

ReplyDeleteA fine selection of soldiers
