SYW Prussian Hussars

I finally got around to posting a couple of new(ish) Prussian hussar regiments on the blog (HR 4 & HR 6). I swore I would never paint another hussar after this lot, but now I have the Kleist Freikorps Hussars half-painted and the Napoleonic Saxon Hussars waiting... I'm starting to break out in a cold sweat at the mere thought of a triangle... >:(

Thanks chaps! Needless to say, the Frei-Husaren were the first unit (of many...) to break and run today... :(

At least the curse is spent now... I hope...

Lovely units, SYW hussar uniforms in general are so beautiful

Very impressive group of over-dressed horse botherers, mate. We both know that units with that much care and time spent on painting them are always going to be a problem, mate.

BTW, Werner's mob, 2nd rank, fourth from the right- you missed a bit of lace.




Looking for that should keep him occupied for hours. :evilgrin:

You should put all your hussars together and have a convention - and a "team photo"! You must have masses of them.

We did rather do that in the Kolin re-fight. :thumbs:
