I had originally traded my Crimean War armies for two AB 18MM Peninsular War armies. Due to third party failures they never appeared. I started again on a whim using GWM. The armies were returned to me out of the blue. Those I have disposed of are already here in their new incarnation - Guards, Highlanders etc.

I've completed the second Roosian infantry battalion and it features over on my blog currently. Lots more pictures and some thoughts on basing for good measure.

Very nice. Each base is different.

A further base of figures added to the 1st, Royal Scots. As you would expect more about them over on my blog. {Not that I'm expecting much interest of course, no antique plaaastic tricornes on view after all.}😁

Nice painting, Mr P. I do also like the fact that your casualties are all lying down where logic suggests they should be, right at the back of each base. Everyone has stepped over them, and the chaps behind them in the rear rank have moved up to fill the gaps. All too often, one sees casualties way out in front of the line - having seemingly dived, footballer-like, (scale) yards ahead of their colleagues.

The 1st, the Royal Scots, have mustered into service in GHQ. As you'd expect more on the blog.

The first of the Prodigal Collection, in this case three regiments of the Light Division, are rebased, reflagged and matt varnished. Much more about them and the wider project over on my blog.
