Setting up an Action

Time to start throwing some dice. I have prepared eight units for DJ to paint over the past couple of months so I have now plenty of time to enjoy the miniatures.

Not sure how large this scenario will end up but I always enjoy setting the table top.

New from Claymore Castings

A member of the AMG forum David I. the proprietor of Claymore Castings was kind enough to send me a casting of the new Seven Years War Russian 3pdr battalion gun (note the small mortars fitted to the carriage). 

The casting is of excellent quality and needed no prepping before gluing. These are a must for any SYW Russian army.

I have placed a few unpainted Russian gunners around the artillery piece to give a sense of size/proportion.

Count von Schwerin

This vignette depicts the count being given the flag of IR24 at the Battle of Prague 6/5/1757.

General W. J. Mollendorff

Prussian General v. Mollendorff painted some years ago by DJ. Also I have included a few better photos of v. Seydlitz.

General F. W. Seydlitz

The other day I decided to make Prussian General v. Seydlitz. I cannot understand why I have not made this SYW personality before given the many I have already made.

It did not take long to milliput and yesterday I painted the figure. Most enjoyable and I am now wondering which others I have missed.
