Last week I posted the French Artillery and Limbers, so today we have the Brits!!! As I said in the previous post these figures were posted on the Annalouge Painting Challenge in early February and I've only just around to post them. The figures are all Essex Miniatures and as you can see there's some guns missing, I definitely painted them but can't find the buggers, I think Fran's pinched them!!!! So that's a few things I'll be buying at Salute, then I'll probably find them!!
The guns and limbers will be used for my French Indian War rules, although I've not worked out yet how the artillery is going to work?? But in a nice long line, I'm sure they'll make a very tempting target for the French and their Indian allies.
I'm off down the A2/M2 to Faversham, tomorrow evening for another playtest of BLB2, with fellow Reject Richard, so look out for another report on the rules, we're playing an attack on a small town, so finally we can get some infantry melee going!!!
Cheers
Ray
How many limbers? More great work Ray, looking forward to the battle report on your return.
ReplyDeleteCheers Michael!!
DeleteThey are really nice, Ray,and a lot of them!
ReplyDeletethat's really awesome!!
ReplyDeleteLimey limbers batman! That's quite a nice wagonpark you've got going there Ray!
ReplyDeleteCheers Sander
Nice work, and you can never have too much artillery.
ReplyDeleteThose are very cool. But where are the unicorns?
ReplyDeleteUnicorns????
DeleteVery nice work Ray. 15 mil can be difficult to paint to a good standard and you've really nailed them.
ReplyDeleteDarrell.
Why thank you Sir!!
DeleteExcellent work! Really enjoying this project!
ReplyDeleteChristopher
great looking limbers and teams there Ray :)
ReplyDeleteExcellent idea having detachable guns on a separate base. Do you have individual gunner figures you can plonk onto the unlimbered gun base (or is that something you've covered in a previous post?...ooops!)
ReplyDeleteI love your basing, too. It's great!
Just makes it a little easier for skirmish games and Yep that's the plan, I've got quite a few bags of the blighters ready to paint up for both sides.
DeleteThat's a lot of limbers. Impressive work again
ReplyDeleteThats one hell of a artillery train you have there Ray
ReplyDeleteImpressive output again Ray. Think you have enough artillery there (once you find the missing guns) to equip the entire British Army!
ReplyDeleteCould be right??
DeleteNice shading on the horses - really brings out the tack nicely. I'm always very lazy when it comes to limbers. I hardly ever use them. It's a shame because they look so great on the table - particularly yours.
ReplyDeleteMASSIVE QUANTITIES too!
Very nice work.
ReplyDeleteNice, Ray!
ReplyDeleteNice work Ray, That is a lot of limbers!!!
ReplyDeleteMay just tempt me into mass producing my own Russian Nap limbers?
Cheers
Paul
Wow, that's a bunch of limbers! They look great!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on these. I really like the way you do your horses.
ReplyDeleteThey're only block painted then inked.
Deletethat is some nice painting
ReplyDeletePretty similar no? o-o
ReplyDeleteNow that's a lot of limbers!!!! Not so many guns ;-)
ReplyDeleteI have to wait till May for my next con, Triples or Partizan, both are close but on following weeks.
Ian
That's a lot of stuff. I'll have to try that excuse myself "I definitely painted them, but . . . "
ReplyDeleteI like these big bulky horses Ray and this is an impressive display here. I think you're pretending to have lost those weapons so you'll have an excuse to spend money at Salute!!
ReplyDeleteExcellent painting Ray. Really like the look of the Essex heavy horses.
ReplyDeleteyou really do great work!
ReplyDeleteI don't see any 15mm horse shite anywhere?

ReplyDeleteCheers Fran, what the hell's the matter with you!!!
DeleteVery nice work! Next time russian? spanish? prussian?...
ReplyDeleteHi Ray,
ReplyDeletethese limbers, horses and guns look very good. And the number is enormous.
Fantastic effort and output Ray. Well detailed and lovely basing.
ReplyDeleteGood luck in the town.
Woe that is impressive "bulk" and artillery fire power :)
ReplyDeleteWell done
I really like how your horses came out, mine never look so good.
ReplyDeleteGreat job; when the order comes to bring up more limbers, you'll be ready.
ReplyDeleteGreat wagon train! Looking forward to the figures to join these cannons.
ReplyDeleteGreetings
