Another Great Northern War Workbench

Hi


A pretty successful week with painting so I thought I might share some progress. A mix of Swedes and Cossacks with a few Saxons too


Firstly the gun crew for the Saxon gun completed on the last workbench post. Ebor figures, takes me to 3 Saxon guns, one per brigade should be plenty..

 Cossack foot! Really enjoying doing these, the below are all Foundry by Mark Copplestone and full of character. I intend to do two battalions of foot Cossacks.

 The command for my next unit of Swedes, in this case the Guard Grenadiers.

 And the command for my fourth unit of Life Guard, just the other 15 to paint for this unit! Its a start.

 The next batch of Guard Grenadiers for the Swedes, Ebor figures , just another 5 to finish this unit.

 A Swedish Brigadier, not decided who this is yet, but I noce figure pointing the way forward to the enemy, again Ebor.

This next chap is a Saxon General, a rather old casting from Foundry but still pretty serviceable.

 Then back to the foot Cossacks, poor photography sorry, rushed them through to add to this post. Foundry again, the priest had a minor conversion to add what is a very nice looking flag I feel.

 

 Foot Cossacks from TAG (The Assault Group) nice figures that fir in well with the foundry ones.

 And finally TAG mounted Cossacks, the photography doesn't really do these figures justice, I will do better when I have them as a finished unit, promise!

Next on the workbench more Cossacks, I finished horses for the next 6 mounted which will give me my third mounted unit of Cossack, then a couple more dismounted should see the first battalion of those complete too.


I will update the blog with another battalion of Saxons at the weekend so watch this space.


Cheers.
