Continuing my painting streak by slowly turning out more Foundry 28mm Cossacks for my kleine krieg Seven Years War project.
On the right, the Cossack commander rides beside his blonde son, who is headstrong and hoping to prove himself in Dad's eyes.
One-Eyed Yuri, despite his eyepatch, can hit a rabbit or a Prussian jaeger from the saddle at the gallop.
New vicar arriving in the parish. Father Berserki is feared by everyone except the Ladies' Garden Guild.
Dismounted cossacks ready to pillage and annoy.
I'm now about half way through the Cossack project. Painting irregularly dressed figures slows me down, I think a lot about the colour palettes and try not to be too repetitious but OTOH painting them is more enjoyable than working on 24 musketeers in the exact same uniforms!
Hopefully we'll see these scurvy fellows on the tabletop soon.
Cheers and blessings to your brushes, MP+
Look for a lot of mayhem on your table soon!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I'm going to keep a close eye on the family silverwear when these lads are let out of their boxes!
DeleteNice very characterful figures 👍
ReplyDeleteThanks, Matt, they're a lot of fun to paint.
DeleteEveryone fears the Ladies Garden Guild.
ReplyDeleteFor good reason.
My parish's garden ladies are terrifying.
DeleteFurred faces and well painted horses. Very manly post! Nice work mate.
ReplyDeleteSplendid bunch of irregulars! I find its better to do more irregulars, break them down into similar batches then mix them up at the end?
