25mm British 15th Hussars

25mm British 15th Hussars Having painted my 15th Hussars back in the 70s in a unit of 24 to match all other Cavalry in my Napoleonic’s armies I know a bit on the big side ( Infantry units 50 men 3 officers 3 drummers and 1 or 2 standards and 2 NCO as well may be a bit over the top in this day and age). When club members pass on to the big wargams table in the sky and have left a few figures most wargams clubs will auction the odd box of figures and you tend to buy them at more then the face value . Not until you get them home and have a good look to see what you have paid for . Yep more Hussars put them to one side 30 odd years later think ill paint them one good thing there all Hinchliffe figures same as the ones I have painted. Now got a standard bearer in the first lot I painted cant have two In the same unit I know make him end of line marker bearer give him a red pennant . 39 figures in that unit that help to even the odds on the French Cavalry 20 to Allied 18 so far .Ho for my 20 foot table .

25mm English Civil War Ironsides

25mm English Civil War Ironsides 30/40 Years a go splashed with my hard-earned pocket money out on a lot of Hinchliffe ECW Figures sitting in my toy box /cupboard . The last lot of ECW figures I painted was back in July 2016 . In June this year a phone call from Mike my best friend said he was started to paint his ECW figures that like my shelf had lots from 30/40 years a go. No why did I not paint any Cavalry that what I said to my shelf when I started to paint them I had used all the horses for my Napoleonic’s . Just a few more to paint Cuirassiers
