With only 9 days left of the Challenge,( when this was posted on the Challenge blog, 8 days ago) I'm gonna have to admit defeat, I'm not going to get all the figures finished for my Almansa project in time, like I hoped I would.
So plodding along we come to Du Burdal's Brigade
DuBurdal's brigade fought in the Centre 2nd Line under Lt Gen Hessy.
The all grey units are broken up by one red coated unit.
The units in th brigade are as follows, Lannoy's 1st and 2nd Brigades, a Savoyard unit Tess, the unusually named Labour and finally the red coated Miromesnil, a Wallon regt.
Tess
Miromesnil
Lannoy, 1st and 2nd. The 1st is carrying the Kings colour. A white cross on a white background???
The points are pretty easy on the great Irregular minis.
5 x bases @ 5 points each = 25pts
Du Burdal = 1/2 point
So a total on 25.5
Which my Minion Stuart will no doubt up to 26 points?
More nice work Ray and even if you have not got through all the figures, you have certainly made a significant dent in the total! I was surprised the Labour regiment wasn't the one in red! 😂😆
ReplyDeleteThey've got red pants on Keith.
DeleteMinions don't add well - maybe he'll give you 260 points?
ReplyDeleteHere's hoping?
DeleteNice work and a creditable effort. The challenge certainly seems to spur you on to great heights.
ReplyDeleteThat's what's great about it Lawrence, you get a lot of stuff painted, you should join in on the next one.
DeleteLooking good Ray. You'll soon get the project finished, regardless of painting challenge.
ReplyDeleteI'll certainly slow down now, but hopefully I'll have everything painted in another couple of months.
DeleteNice looking masses of troops, Ray!
ReplyDeleteCheers Dean.
DeleteYour effort in this has been remarkable. Somehow the grey coats even look good in this scale.
ReplyDeleteThanks Joe!
DeleteImpressive masse Ray, nice job!
ReplyDeleteCheers Phil.
DeleteShame about the challenge but another great addition to your project, the red coated Wallon regiment certainly break up the grey units. It's been really good following your progress on this project I have found it very inspirational.
ReplyDeleteThanks Donnie, I'm glad my project has inspired you. You'll be painting 2mm figures before you know it!!
DeleteVery nice Ray. You have chosen a period that works well in 2mm thanks to the numerous colourful uniforms and flags. I really like the subtle labels too.
ReplyDeleteLee.
Cheers Lee, the WSS does work well in this scale, glad you like the labels too.
DeleteFair racing through painting these Ray. How many bases is that now?
ReplyDeleteLoads!!!
DeleteAnother five units off the production line...
ReplyDeleteI thnk it must be tome ofr a group shot of all you've done over the challenge
