Russian Horse Grenadiers

So the latest unit back from the basing department is a unit of Russian Horse Grenadiers.


Only finished painting them last week but they jumped the queue as the basing department prefers basing Cavalry!


So these are all Ebor miniatures, the command pack is the same as the standard Dragoon one, the troopers are 2 different figures in a 3 figure pack.


They are based on Kropatov's horse Grenadier regiment from the Osprey and is a simple but bright uniform.









 
I also have 2 command bases back which I will add to the blog soon and an upcoming Russian Civil War Game on Sunday that I hope too have an After Action Report for early next week.


Thanks for reading look forward to sharing some more with you soon.

    1. Thanks Paul, the dismounted Cossacks should also add a bit of different colour.

    2. No way! I tried to contact Nick replying to his mail but it returned 3 times with a failure notice. I even tried to call him with no success. I wrote my requests on the contact page of his site, again with no success.
      At the end I ordered another Swedish Btg some Swedish cavalry and 2 squadron of Danish cavalry. So no Russian infantry. Sorry to bother you
