Well that's most of the Reichsarmee grenadiers done...

Excellent work, mate. How long before you finish the rest of 'em?

Cheers!
I've got one more grenadier battalion, the Kurfurstin Dragoons and five guns to finish by 15th April, along with some Kleist Frei Dragoons, Hussars and Jager (and Kleist himself). Then I'm aiming to finish the remaining Franconian Regiment, a Franconian gun, two tiny dragoon regiments (Wurttemberg & Sachsen-Gotha) and the rest of Kleist's boys by the end of April.

10 frames of Perry Franco-Prussian plastic Prussian infantry - four advancing, four skirmishing and two command. Cuff detail carefully(?) carved off, working on removing the shako cords from the Landwehr shakos prior to adding a hair tuft and turning them into Infantry Regiment No.92 Brunswick. for the Ayton 2023 colonial bash. Hussars already prepped and primed.

The first 28mm Napoleonic French infantry I have painted in 42 years.... fiddly!

Too right! But they'll look very pretty when they're done.

Very nice and smart looking grenadiers.

Thanks Willz!

From Rapid Fire. My disorganised collection, surprisingly, needs very little to create historical formations from the Rapid Fire Normandy force book.

This will complete the British & the Yanks only need a handful of bazooka & 60mm mortar troops from AB to be complete.
My sprawling German collection are in similar shape & about 3 vehicles will bring them up to spec.

I'm really looking forward to getting time to paint this lot.

Time to paint? A quick squirt of olive drab, tracks and tyres, wash, drybrush, done...

At the moment, I've fortunately been able to fall asleep at staff meetings to make up for otherwise being short of sleep.
