Homecast C18th Wargames army

Here are photos of my homecast 35mm C18th army as it currently stands. All the the figures are 35mm from toe to top of head. I have just finished making masters for artillery gunners, a Grenadier (Austrian style) and begun work on a Cavalry Trooper. I need to make a General or two as well. The figures on the left of the line are the extra stands that resulted from me reducing the numbers of figures in a Regiment from 32 to 24. I will touch up the figures with a dab of paint here and there, add some standards and there will be another three regiments fit for service. I am looking forward to using these with the Honours of War rules.
This is the 'Daniels' Regiment painted to the colors given to me by a wargames buddy whose names just happens to be Daniels. The regiment has its priest with it as they are a sanctimonious lot. The Priest is a Redoubt figure from their Three Musketeer line. It just happened to be the right scale for my minis.


 I made the original masters for these minis back in 1983, it was my first experiment with milliput.
 Same again only a French Regiment.

The 'Williams' Regiment in the colors given to me by another wargaming buddy whose name of course is Williams.

  3. Wow! From 1983 - these look great - well done. If find Milliput harder to use than Green Stuff; not like I can sculpt anywhere near your skills.
