      Rather a larger light box than smaller units 😁

  4. Another one of the many, many wars I had considered . History is just too big and time is just too limited...

    1. True there are always many more tempting periods and never enough time…

    1. Thank you Jan…
      I have four more Russian battalions to do … Which will give me a Jäger Regiment…
      After that I may add a Grenadier Regiment… Mostly because I like the flags…
      I think I have the makings of eight British Battalions…
      I will see how it goes after they are finished/rebased.

      All the best. Aly

  10. Hi Aly - just discovered your blog and really enjoying it. Just getting into the Crimean War myself and lots of inspiration here! My first unit was French Grenadiers, which are at my own blog here: https://tasmancave.blogspot.com/2024/01/ahpc-14-french-grenadiers.html
    Cheers, Paul

    1. Hi Paul
      Your Grenadiers look lovely…
      I would never have thought they might end up on Mars 😁
      All the best. Aly

      It will be a while before they see battle but when they do I am sure it will be impressive.
