And here they are!
Brigadier Walter Modellbauer, Brigadier Friedrich von Tegetthoff and Brigadier Karl Von Marmolise (not to be confused with Major von Marmalade, currently having a fued with Tegettoff)

6th Cuirassiers - who break every rule for Cuirassier equipment!

Command for the 13th, rest of the unit will be along soon, honest!

A few chilly reinforcements, made from bits I had in storage, to split across two divisions.

The bug has certainly bitten deeply.
Winter 7th Jagers (actually Landwehr figures, but if the shako fits, wear it).

Enjoy

I started this project in 2014, but it stalled rather. Thankfully, an inspiration struck and I got these done.

Black Powder 1870 Stats and Modifications

1870 Franco-Prussian Conflict in Black Powder Hi all, If you are reading this, it's because. like us, you are Black Powder fans and want to know how we manage the Franco-Prussian War. Anything below is by no way official, just the house rules we have developed over the last few years of playing. A few thoughts first: Fighting in the period is best described as hard fought assaults by Prussians, supported by superior artillery against superior but very strong defensive French lines. All ranges and movements are in cm scale, just to be awkward!

Hunting The Red Baron on the Dawn Patrol. Bit bigger than 25mm scale, but he will provide top cover for my Kindred WWI stuff. Yes, you have seen the flight stand before on my epic stuff. He's going so fast, the camera can't focus! "Curse you Red Baron!" Two more Highlanders from the 80s, thanks to Brian up the road. Armed with two bottles or a sword, who is harder? More plaid Well hard! Top view A chaos warrior It was free, and I've given it to a mate who runs a chaos armym=, hence th elack of basing as he will do it to his own style. Big chopp...
