A second unit finished today the 10th Prussian grenadiers, using Spencer Smiths from my pre-painted stash.
Lightened the blue, repainted the flesh, white and the metals.
Flag from David at "Not by Appointment".
The sergeant, drummer and officer with standard are conversions.

Are these (finally!) the last of the firing figures I gave you a couple of years back? If so, you've done a damned good job on them (if not, then my figures obviously gave you the practice to achieve perfection).

Cheers for your kind comment, no Brandon those figures were painted a couple of years ago.
These were purchased last week.

You must have enough figures for a 1:1 game of Kolin or Prague by now, Willz. Well done.

Excellent stuff again! you can never have too many. Better to be safe...
That said, I was just wondering whether to bother buying and painting any Hessian and Brunswick grenadiers, or just use the Prussians I've already got. None of mine have flags, so it's only the very minor uniform differences that mark them out.

Just paint Hessian command stands RMD, I have several regiments that I must build extra command stands for so that I may use them for different armies.
Thanks for all your kind comments and support.

I don't even need to do that, as my grenadiers don't have flags (I also base entire battalions on one stand).
Yeah, I think I'll just use the Prussians.
