I painted these figures a while back but did not finish them. However inspired by the iconic images on the Hinton Spieler - blog http://thehintonspieler.blogspot.co.uk - I thought I would finish and base them up.


These are painted as Hessian types and will be used for my Electorate of Furstenburg-Lederhosen forces. There opponents will be the imperial troops of Maxony.


Gloss finished and based on mdf painted with humbrol green (no 80).


I have enough infantry to paint another unit and some cavalry for a couple of squadrons.

You have done a cracking job on them.It was a wonderful range when it came out, and has stood the test of time.
Well done.

They look fantastic, Mark. Very well proportioned figures and the right painting to match.
