Regiment Lee

Some 18th Century love on a Sunday afternoon. 28mm Front Rank figurines with Maverick Models flags painted as the Regiment Lee, Irish in French service. The Irish are a must have in a French army for a number of reasons, but if for no other than a little splash of colour in a sea of grey.

I feel I've neglected my WSS on the painting table of late, having concentrated on other subjects (Crimean War at the fore), but rest assured there are lots more waiting for the brush.

WSS French Generals

The French needed some Commanders (my classic failing!). These three are 28mm Front Rank Figurines.

On another topic, I've finished and based (with proper finished basing as well!) the Cyclopean war band for Dragon Rampant, 24 points worth, I'll being taking photos and posting once I get an opportunity and some decent light.

WSS French - Regiment Languedoc

I haven't posted anything 18th century for a while so I thought I'd post the latest addition to my WSS French is the Regiment Languedoc to make up for it; the miniatures are 28mm from Front Rank Figurines, flags are Maverick Models if I recall, and repainted as I has a slight mishap.

WSS French Army Progress

I thought I'd post a few pictures of my WSS French army with the latest additions. It's starting to come together now, I think I need to concentrate on some cavalry units, and maybe the command. There's still lots to paint, as well as some British, so plenty of interest for those who like the War of Spanish Succession.
