Flags are by AB this time.
The command is supposed to represent one of the Corps commanders, although the actual Nansouty figure is hidden on the 7ths command base!

7th & 8th Cuirassiers & command
I've just finished these guys - they have yellow facings so would be good for the 7th, 8th and 9th regiments. As usual with AB they are easy to paint up, however I did notice that the 'at rest' pose hides more detail than the charging pose. I have another four 12 man regiments of these to paint. I was envisaging Marshal Ney leading an all out charge up the slope at Mont st Jean!

Damn fine painting Ken!
ReplyDeleteSplendid job Ken....and photos!
ReplyDeleteGreat looking commands for a potent force.
ReplyDeleteThey are lovely Ken!
ReplyDeleteThank you gentlemen, you are too kind. Any skill I have is due to Anthony Barton!
ReplyDeleteLovely work on these guys!
ReplyDeleteNice array of heavy cavalry! These ought to strike fear into their opponents.
ReplyDeleteExcellent. I commissioned a unit of AB cuirassiers last year. At Xmas I picked up a bag of Old Glory cuirassiers as well. As I already have enough for Waterloo they are not top of my painting priority, but they are my favourite Napoleonic unit.
ReplyDeleteThanks Roger, Jonathon and SoY
ReplyDeleteThe AB's are nice, I find the OG horses a bit small compared wth AB, but they are still nice sculpts.
Great stuff Ken. I really like the bases, and it's always good to see the heavies getting painted.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dave, I'm sure they get a chance to cantor up the hill.
