ALY MORRISON'S "BUTTERFLY" ADVENTURES IN THE WORLD OF WARGAMES AND TOY SOLDIERS

The War of 1812… More British Infantry.

Greetings…

Here we have yet more British infantry for this project…

Another batch of The 41st Regiment of Foot…



As with the previous unit these chaps were a pleasure to paint…

You may notice that the are being lead by a sergeant… This is for two simple reasons… I can’t find my bag of British officers… And this is a rather nice figure. It doesn’t make any difference in the rules I am going to use (Rebels and Patriots) but when I find where all my officers have gone I may replace him…or maybe not.

The Tunics are… Citadel… Evil Sunz Scarlet.

The Trousers and Braid are… Citadel… Pallid Wych Flesh.

The Knapsacks are… Foundry… Drab Light 12C.

The Straps are… Citadel… Corax White.

The Water Bottles are… Citadel… Russ Grey.

The Water Bottle Straps… Citadel… Skrag Brown.

The Muskets are… Citadel… Mournfang Brown.

As always everything was given a coat of Aly’s Brown Liquid and highlighted with the original colours, the belts were further highlighted up with pure White.

The figures are from Knuckleduster Miniatures

The paints are Wargames Foundry and Citadel...

The bases are as always...

I have some more 1812 figures on the way… and then maybe something shiny.


All the best.  Aly

      Thank you Jonathan…
      I have two British/Canadian units and possibly another American to complete…
      Then I will have enough for a game.

      All the best. Aly.

    Very nice Aly - they may perform better on the battlefield if you leave all the officers unfound.... :)

    Excellent unit as usual. Personally think officers are vastly over rated.

    Cute unit, that integrates well with the previous one: how about showing us a picture of the whole in a future post?
    For the missing miniatures, we would assume an officers-only party that lasted a bit too long the previous night...

      Thank you…
      I only have another couple of units to paint and the initial phase of this project with be completed… I shall have a little parade then.
      The party is probably still going on.

      All the best. Aly
