Regiment Orange-Nassau

The next unit completed is the Orange-Nassau regiment. These are old glory Dutch Infantry advancing poses with the same problems with muskets getting in the way of the faces and cross-belts. Another problem with these figures is that the bayonets are quite brittle and I've lost a few. Otherwise few problems painting them and I'm happy enough, the only mistakes I know I've made is that the Orange-Nassau didn't have gaiters and I'm missing the shako cords. I didn't fancy using CGM figures although they actually do this regiment they do appear a bit more expensive than OG. The officer is by CGM and flags by GMB.

  5. Nice finish Ken,
    Yes Old Glory have a character all of their own. You really get to know the OG figures while working on them.

  6. Indeed Paul! Sometimes with a bit too much character! But they are cheap and cheerful and fill out the armies quite nicely.
