Napoleonic Russian Commanders ~ 1812

[Greystreak]

Some recently completed 'leader stands' for my ongoing Napoleonic Russian project. A Jäger Brigade commander, Cavalry Brigade commander, and an Infantry Divisional General. Figures are Foundry 28mm (A. Perry, sculptor), paints are Foundry & P3, bases by Litko. Comments & suggestions welcomed.

Brillian stuff as always Bryce, keep up the good work.
I must get back to my Russians soon but seem to have been a bit side tracked by another war involving the Russians
Thanks for that Bob!

Cheers

Very Nice

That, sir, is some exquisite brush-work. I think the best - and it is very hard to tell - is done on the jager colonel's horse.

Though the orange-black-white plume on the Cavalry Brigade commander is a close second.

Superb figures!

Here's a suggestion: stop tempting me to get into Napoleonics with your beautifully painted Russians! I have a soft spot for the Tsar's children.

Seriously though, these are excellent Bryce! I particularly like the very dark green you use; eyewitness accounts describe the Russian green as appearing almost black in many cases, and your colour selection reflects this well.

BTW, what rules are you using when you field these on the tabletop?

Cheers,
Tom

Excellent again, very clean style. Really nice , I like the groundwork.

These will make the Emperor - the legitimate one - very happy!

Thanks for the comments, all. I'm still not sure my figures would stand close scrutiny on the same table alongside the artwork of Messrs O'Brien, Hilton, or Imrie.

BTW, what rules are you using when you field these on the tabletop?

Well Tom, in this Forum the most appropriate answer would of course be "Republic to Empire".

But I'm sure Barry won't mind me admitting that they also see action for other 1:20 scale rules (such as General de Brigade, and Black Powder), depending on my Club's preferences, and the gaming time available. Unfortunately, I had already purchased all my Litko bases prior to the publication of RtE, so my leaders are not based on 'round' ones.

Bryce, your painting is superb and it is me that would be worried putting mine alongside yours but anytime you want to pop up to Scotland for a game we would definitely love to have you, but if you can't manage that just send the figures

They are lovely looking figures.

Bryce,

These are gorgeous; it's just a pity that they fight for the wrong side.
