15mm Fantasy

Additions to my 15mm Fantasy collection, these are figures that have sat on the shelf for a few years and I have finally decided to bring them in form the cold.  

Xyston Gallic Gestati, naked fanatics....so what better than these to represent my Barbarian fanatics/beserkers!!

Now if I play Kings of War with these guys they could be like this, 2 bases to a 'regiment' or I could use them 4 bases to a 'horde'....I could even use the lot as one big 'legion' now that option could be fun!  Just imagine all 8 bases in the centre of the Barbarian line just waiting to crash into the enemy's prize troops!!!

As you can see, naked, dirty and covered in blue 'woade' to ward off the enemy's blades!  Just fine fanatics!

Below is a repost of how I'm going to represent 'Large Cavalry'...there will be 3 of these brutes on a base representing a regiment...I think they will be suitably intimidating!  Well I plan on 4 regiments! lol

10mm Seven Years War

Just two units to show this time, both representing the Reichsarmee.  When I mentioned that I was painting these troops on the Seven Years War Wargaming Facebook page, people laughed as they die really easily in almost every set of rules....but I just like them! lol

Combined Grenadiers of Infantry Regiments Kumainz(Green) and Kurkoln(Red)

Swabian Infantry Regiment Alt-Wurttemburg...now I have taken license here as I found two different descriptions of their headdress, and as I ave figures in Prussian Mitre hats I went for that inturpritation!

10mm Seven Years War

My latest project, yes I know I have still not finished so many others, what can I say I'm easily distracted.....

But Seven Years War...starting with the Austrians, why?  Because I bough a couple of job lots cheap and I thought why not!

For inspiration and uniform guides I have followed a couple of great blogs and a very good wiki page..

Both web pages are very good fonts of knowledge!
