Hinton Hunt Vintage Wargame Figures: Brunswick Hussars

Sunday, 13 February 2011

The Brunswick Hussars are finished at last - 6 x BRN/17 Death's Head Hussar (Horse Attached Series) charging.

I see a line of Hussars and they’re all painted black

I see Hussars ride by dressed in their sombre clothes

I wanna see em painted black, painted black

Black as night, black as coal, yeah…

Who's next? Old Guard? (Somewhere in those short sentences is a subtle hint!). ;-)

Stryker said...: Matt - I wasn't planning to tackle the Old Guard this year (as Wellington probably thought on New Year's Day 1815!) but there may be some other Guard appearing.

Conrad - I have come to appreciate The Rollings Stones fairly late in life (when I was a lad you either liked the Beatles or The Stones not both!). Painted Black is a great tune...; 14 February 2011 at 09:01

Paulalba said...: Very cool Ian,
For some reason your updates are not appearing on my blog? I'll have to check it out? Brunswickers are 1 of my favourites. Not planning on doing the 100 days for a bit so they are out of the picture for me for the moment.
Cheers
