League of Augsburg

 Here is the French Regiment Vermandois, they are in the standard light grey uniform with a little bit of colour.

After my last painting purge I realized I needed more French foot, so I will be painting them up 2 to 1 units in favour of the French over the allies.

FOW US Infantry WIP

A WIP pic of the US Infantry commission, just over 100 figures awaiting shading dip and then the base work!

More to come.

Update

After my rotation at home I back at work in my basement and back on the painting conveyor belt.  Whilst I was home I picked up two more commissions a FOG Kyreane Greek Army and a load of US infantry for FOW.

For my own collection I bought more metal, like I needed more!  Loads of 10mm the remainder of my LoA armies and the start of my Seven Years War armies.  The LoA and the Austrian SYW army were bought from Pendraken, as usual a fantastic service from Leon.  Got everything I wanted, which was great because I never buy by the pack by request exact number of figures.  I know this is a pain by Leon is very helpful!

I did also picked up a large selection of SYW Pendraken from Stuart who runs Colonel Bills.  He is a great guy who I have met on several occasions at the PAW show and he has a wonderful selection of pre loved minis for sale, I highly recommend him! 

Obviously I will post pictures as I paint...

LOA Danish Foot Guards

Another 55 figure, no pike regiment for the allies.

The Danish Foot Guards, a well used and reliable regiment.  the are resplendent in their 'golden yellow' coats.  I have done the Officers and musicians in reverse colours as that is what I have seen on other blogs.

I do like the way this regiment has come out

Punic Wars Roman

Two more units of my Punic Wars project.....

This is a unit of Triarii, the most senior legionaries in the army.  In this period they were armed with thrusting spear not pilum.

 

The cavalry or Equestrians, a small body of mounted men recruited from the richest families in Rome.  each legion normally had only one unit of Equestrians.

Martian Front BEF Infantry

BEF infantry section, these should be 10 man section on one of their long straight bases, however I think they do not look right all lines up as on parade so I experimented with FOW medium bases and I much prefer the look.

The 8 man section, including the heavy weapons guy.  The sculpts are great the gas marks are a nice took and the models paint up really well!

Close up of the heavy weapons guy.

 

The other fire team.

And below is a size comparison picture, AQMF BEF and FOW Soviets, as you can see they are much bigger at 18/20mm

AQMF Vehcile Selection WIP

Ok, I am just going through the box of unmade and unpainted BEF troops.  I selected a variety of vehicles as a test run.

Some of the models can be quite fiddly to put together and as all good gamers do I ended up sticking my fingers to the models! 

But here are some WIP pics...

Here we have L-R Mono Tank, Specter Armored Car, Kitchener Tank (The Specter was a pain to fit together!)

 

Kitchener and Mono tanks base sprayed Army Painter Desert and then dry brushed FOW Sand

Defiant Armored Car next to the Specter, the Specter is the nearest model to actual 15mm scale.  These are defiantly 18mm scale models
