Well, It stayed dry and I varnished my Grenzer skirmishers! There are three groups of six, plus an officer and an NCO as leaders.
First. the group with the NCO:
Next a group with an officer;
And finally a third group;
As they have red facings and yellow buttons, I have chosen them to represent Grenzregiment no. 5, the Warasdiner-Kreutzer regiment.
As a first for me, I have given these chaps movement trays. I don't usually bother for skirmish groups, but I bought some cheap trays at Colours recently, so I suppose I should at least give them a go.
Nice work!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ray.
DeleteThe chappies do look rather nice. I think I prefer the brown jackets to the white - just as a change from the usual whitecoats of the regular infantry (I've recently painted up some metal grenzers myself - 6th Warasdiner-St Georger).

Yes, they do make a nice contrast. I have Landwehr (in grey) and Chevauleger (green tunics) to paint too, plus some Hussars who are still just bits on sprues, so eventually there will be plenty of colourful uniforms.
