First 6mm Figures

Here are some pictures of my first foray into 6mm Wargames; French Napoleonic Infantry Regiment in L’Ordre Mixte, plus artillery support.

And a couple of Light Infantry Battalions to round out the Brigade.

The photos were by iPad camera and not in the best light, but hopefully they don’t look too bad.

They look pretty darn good


Through the travail of the ages Midst the pomp and toil of war Have I fought and strove and perished Countless times upon this star.
So as through a glass and darkly The age long strife I see Where I fought in many guises, Many names but always me.
So forever in the future Shall I battle as of yore, Dying to be born a fighter But to die again once more.

Indeed they do look very good, as do the buildings.


A little goes a long way

I’ve just realised the links give you the same picture, so here’s a second attempt at the Light Infantry Battalions . . .

 For those interested in the buildings, its the Walled Farm from Battlescale Wargames Buildings; I got it in their Europe’s Buildings set, they paint up well (even for a total beginner like me); these are just block Coloured with a dilute brown ink wash. I then had some fun with flock, clump foliage, and printed signs.

It seems that its going to be one picture per post, or they are all the same picture. Here are some different angle on the Battlescale Buildings.
