Russian His Majesty’s and Her Majesty’s Currasiers

 Here are the Russian His and Hers currasiers. All the figures are Essex Miniatures. I painted the “His” over 20 years ago. But they were a funny mismatch paint scheme originally. Now they are both painted as His & Hers Majesty’s with the latter completed a few weeks ago.

French Guard Artillery

French Guard Artillery

 Finished my two batteries of AB French Guard Artillery. The guns are Blue Moon French 12 pounders. I also finished some odds and ends and made an Essex Guard battery. This will do as a 6lb battery. At a distance the three units look okay together. The Essex guns are a bit chubby looking but the figures are in great coats so they look fine. 

Battery 1

Battery 2
Battery 3
