More Crimean British

The last of the re-basing…

my name is cardigan, what is what, what is wHat!

These represent the 11th Hussars of Balaclava fame, or rather infamy. I had eleven of these already painted, so had to find one more to colour match and paint up.

I painted these myself some twenty years ago and was very proud of them at the time.

Here are all the skirmishing units I will need: naturally composed of Riflemen. These I bought painted

Finally, here’s another battalion of Guards. This is a half-n-half unit: the rear two ranks are composed of Minifigs Guards that I painted some twenty years ago; the front two ranks are newly bought Timecast figures painted up to match. There’s a small difference in size and pose between the two, but nothing that will be noticeable on the tabletop.

Just another unit of standard foot, a Scots battalion, and the commanders to go now: but they will all have to be bought and painted from scratch,
