The Final Huguenot Foot Regiment

This is La Meloniere's the last of the three Huguenot foot regiments that fought in Ireland in 1690. Ready just in time for a League of Augsburg weekend in Derby. Wonder how they will do...


The whole army is going...


But the project doesn't finish there, a cavalry regiment of Huguenots Schomberg's French Horse also fought in the campaign. A test piece is below.


And to keep things interesting I'm adding a cannon or two...

Kellerman

This is Perry's version of Kellerman from their 1815 range. Like many other figures he's been languishing on the old desktop for some time and only recently got daubed whilst I was contemplating what to start next.

I recently made a list of everything I'd bought and had yet to paint. I don't recommend doing this, it was depressing in the extreme.

Finished Unit - Lockheed P-38 Lightning

This was an impulse purchase (so many are) but I've always loved the look of this aircraft, maybe it's the twin fin novelty. This is the Battlefront model and will fit in with some of the forces in the D-Day books.

Painted in a very similar way to the Sherman tanks:

  1. Black undercoat.
  2. Russian green (Vallejo) base coat.
  3. Nuln oil (GW) ink wash.
  4. Russian green highlight. 
  5. Russian green/green grey edge highlight.

Finished Unit - Huguenot Brigadier

Taking a break from large units and on to the officer class for a while. Probably already have too many brigadiers for the size of my BLB force but I do get through them at a reasonable rate!

What I’m Working on Now…

Still getting those good old Huguenots together in the hope I can parade them around Derby in October.

Finished Unit - Chaos Dreadnought

The Word Bearers get a new toy with which to destroy the works of the false god-emperor. Gee these guys need to take a holiday, 10,000 years of perpetual hate can't be good for the stress levels!

Used Army Painter spray can as an undercoat followed by details using Citadel paint. The whole model was then dipped in Strong Tone. Highlights then applied. In keeping with my other Word Bearers models I've kept this one with a gloss look, just to be different from my preferred matt finish.

Its all GW's finest of course...
