The artillery gunners are repainted Prussians that I had originally produced before the Revell SYW Austrian Artillery appeared, they have now replaced my old Washington's Army conversions
Just the commanders to work on, but they will need to have extra figures added

Hi Will,
Would they be Airfix Highlanders by chance? If they are I have very fond memories of painting those way back in the early 1970s for my 1815 Allied army. I also remember fielding a full sized Charge regiment of 48 rank and file with the first row kneeling at the ready and the rear row standing at the ready. Alas they succumbed to the dreaded plastic rot....
The army looks really good and I am quite taken with the basing.
Well done that man!

Lovely army. Nice to see all those Airfix bods, they´ve still got it in em to stand and fight. I like the idea of using the Airfix French artillery limbers..
A nice, colourful and compact little army!
Hi David, yes they are the old Airfix Highlanders still fighting with suitably cut down bonnets for the period. In the past I also had a full sized regiment for the Charge rules. I wonder what happened to them?
The new bases look great. Nice!
They look great Will. Always good to see the old Airfix figures in various guises. British grenadiers as British grenadiers, who'd have though it? Next you'll have Washington's Army actually representing American troops!! :)
James, just wait till later in the year when I get started on the Americans.
