Bulking out my 1806 Prussians in 15/18mm

Since the days of Lasalle 1st edition, I have been meaning to bulk out my ever-victorious 1806 Prussians* from Principles of War.
*Seriously, they have never lost a game! It's like Bloodbowl Halflings - you never expect them to do well, so anything positive is a miracle.

A more mixed variety of poses, including extra musicians, as they will be in looser formation and skirmishing in front of my main Prussian columns.

Line will fire...

Got to love Hussars!


Charge! (What else will hussars do?)


Run away!
 
Yellows final stand, just gone back and sorted the white bleed on the hats!

Three musketeer units bulked out.
Five stands across three units, which allows me to free up other stands to make more units (it's a long and very dull story).
 
The yellow unit will get an extra base soon too.

With the advent of 'Soldiers of Napoleon' the task became much more manageable, and I finally got round to doing some Dragoons.


Four bases to be shared by two units


Marked the back of the bases across all the units too as I am having difficulty telling them apart!

The random miniatures in my lead pile thread

Hi all, As the months go on, I am finding more random stuff that does not fit into any catagory is creeping it's way up to the surface of my lead mountain.  I decided a few years back, rather than just throw it back like one of Nobby's escaped socks, I would actually paint some of them   A 1983 Grenadier warrior, and a 1985 McDeath Highlander, both from my brilliannt neighbour Brian in his random assortment of stuff.
