Having recently paraded Wellington's British infantry I thought that, for the sake of completeness, I should also parade his Allies.
 |
| There are 96 Hinton Hunt figures arranged in four units. |
 |
| The figures have all been painted by me except for the Nassauers (Matt G). |
 |
| Hanoverians in the front followed by Belgians, Brunswickers and the Nassau Grenadiers. |
 |
| The first of these units (the Nassauers) was painted in 2010 and the last (Hanoverians) this year. |
I guess this effectively completes Wellington's infantry giving him a total of 12 units to call upon. This doesn't mean I won't paint more in the future (no wargamer ever completes an army) but for now I intend to shift my focus to the Austrians.
Now there’s pretty…
ReplyDeleteThat’s just how one’s allies should look…
All the best. Aly
Thanks Aly, useful chaps to have in a tight corner!
ReplyDeleteImpressive. That should be enough to hold it Nappy until the Prussians arrive. So, Austrian (Hungarian) hussars next?
ReplyDeleteRob, you’ll have to wait until the next post to see what I’m up to!
DeleteSuperb parade, lovely looking allies for the Duke, they all look great but I really like the Belgians, very nice indeed.
ReplyDeleteThanks Donnie, probably about time those Belgians saw some action!
DeleteVery smart looking units, thanks for the Napoleonic eye candy treat.
ReplyDeleteWillz.
Thanks Willz.
DeleteWonderful parade of vintage troops as always Ian.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lee, It is nice to see the whole division assembled.
DeleteI love parades.
ReplyDeleteRob, yes who doesn’t!
DeleteVery pretty troops but with a look of fighting (or dicing) soldiers
ReplyDeleteThanks Ross, the Belgians and Hanoverian’s are yet to see action but I must do something about that.
DeleteA lovely little contingent. Looking forward to more Austrians.
ReplyDeleteThanks Matt, the Austrians are already underway…
DeleteHandsome! (x 4)
ReplyDeleteThanks Bob (x4)
DeleteShiny perfection!
ReplyDeleteThank you WM.
DeleteThis collection of figures sums up why so many folks model the armies at Waterloo. A stunning collection of military haberdashery!
ReplyDeleteI think as wargamers we are all drawn to it!
