Batthyányi Dragoons

I have completed my latest unit. These are the 7th Batthyányi Dragoons.

During the Seven Years war they were commanded by Heinrich Hartenberg.


I am using Acrylics to paint my Zinnfiguren. For shadow I use Acrylic inks with Burnt Umber and Sepia working well on horses. I use  grey ink to add a little highlight.

These figures are from Kieler set 1428  - Dragoons in Angriff (attack) and are certainly dynamic looking chaps.

I have started my next unit - the Mainz Lamberg Infantry.

    Love these! And I am really enjoying your continued work with flats in general. One of my favorite Austrian cavalry units, so you know I have my own version in the collection.

    Kind Regards,

    Stokes

    Those figures are stunning, such great poses, full of life and everything a beau sabreur should be. You've really done them proud with your painting style being just perfect for them.
