Hi Guys
I've added some French Cavalry to my French Revolutionary War army. This time Chasseur à Cheval from EUREKA MINIATURES.
This is only a 'Small' unit for LASALLE, (8 miniatures). I might also use them for FoG:N or even MAURICE!
It's been so long since I've got around to base these guys I can't even recall what Regiment they are.
As usual, comments welcomed!
Cheers

More Cuirassiers!
ABOVE: "CHARGE"! The command element of the 7th Cuirassiers.
Hi
I've uploaded some more photos of my two Regiments of Cuirassiers I've based thus far.
the 1st (a 6 base 'Large' unit) and the 7th, (a 'Small unit of 4 bases).
I'll use these lads for gaming LASALLE, but they can also be used for FoG:N.
ABOVE: "Merde"! The 1st take some cannister fire. Ouch!
BELOW: The 7th Regiment with Lt General Edouard Jean Baptiste MILHAUD leading.
BELOW: The command base for the 1st Regiment, also know in 1815 as 'Cuirassiers du Roi'
Both Regiments were from the IVème Corps de Cavalerie - 13ème Division de Cavalerie in 1815 but the 1st was in the 1st Brigade and the 7th was in the 2nd Brigade.
Above and Below: Both Regiments mass for the charge.
All are PERRY Miniatures. Some plastics and some metal.
Comments Welcomed.
Cheers

Dutch Belgian Casualties
Hi Guys
Two posts in one day.
SPOILT OR WHAT!?
More Dutch Belgians. This time 'Casualty' or 'Disruption' Markers.
I'll need these for playing 'LASALLE', though I could also use them for playing FoG:N.
Above and Below: "Well I guess he won't be using his ammunition, so I might as well help myself".
BELOW: Cavalry casualties.
These are all PERRY MINIATURES.
Comments Welcomed.

Dutch Belgian Artillery
ABOVE. The Infantry officer arrives with fresh orders.
Hi Guys
Time for another update. I've added artillery of the 'Horse' type to my growing Dutch Belgian forces for 1815.
These are the very nice PERRY MINIATURES Dutch Belgian Horse Artillery firing their 6 Pounders.
I've based them on 50mm X 100mm bases. I've based them for Lasalle, but I can also use them for FoG:N.
My only gripe with these miniatures is the Perry's only did them in a 'Firing' pose. Most of the other Perry artillery sets come in 'FIRING' and 'LOADING' poses and some even have 'RUNNING UP'.
I'm a Gunner by trade, so really like to have a mix of poses for my Artillery sets.
All the same, these are very nice miniatures.
I added an Infantry officer arriving with orders for the Battery. You can see him to the rear of the central gun, orders in hand.
As usual. All comments are welcomed.
Cheers!

2nd Nassau-Usingen Regiment and Volunteer Jager company
Hi Guys
I finally got around to adding a Flag to my 2nd Nassau-Usingen Regiment that my good friend 'Gunner Dunbar' painted for me a few months ago. They are the excellent PERRY MINIATURES and I think you'll agree they are excellent sculpts.
I've based these guys for LASALLE, though they would also do nicely for FoG:N.
ABOVE: The Grenadier Company:
BELOW: A wounded Officer alerts his men to some enemy. Are they Cavalry?
Or is he saying, "Oi, is that my boot over there"?
BEOW: A poor unfortunate comes a cropper.
BELOW: The Voltigeurs advancing, high porte.
After these guys arrived I attempted to paint the Volunteer Jager company myself. I tried to match Danl's style as best I could but Danl is really a master and I'm afraid I'm not quite up to his standard. At three feet away they match quite well, but closer inspection will show I'm not in the same league.
I used the ARMY PAINTER method on the Volunteer Jager company. Block colours and Dip then Matt Varnish / Anti-shine spray. Works a treat.
BELOW: My effort at the Volunteer Jager company in front of Danl's 2nd Nassau-Usingen Regiment
BELOW: Some more photos of the Volunteer Jager company
ABOVE: A close up of my efforts on the Volunteer Jager company. A tad sloppy,...
The Flag is from GBM Flags, and the Volunteer Jager company are again the excellent PERRY MINIATURES.

Dutch Militia
ABOVE: My Dutch Militia Colour Party and Battalion Commander. Miniatures by PERRY, Flag by GBM.
Hi All
I thought I might share my first Dutch Belgian units I have finish for my WATERLOO PROJECT.
Dutch Militia and a Command Base.
They are all PERRY MINIATURES. I picked up some painted miniatures from DRAGON PAINTING SERVICE (DPS) and then painted some more, (about half) to match. I think I did OK, and I suspect most people will struggle to tell which ones I painted and which ones are the DPS painted.
BELOW: My 'Command Base'. This will make a nice Objective marker for LASALLE games or a rather nice Line Of Communication (LOC) marker for FIELD OF GLORY - NAPOLEONIC (FOG-N). I'm thinking I might add a table with some bread and wine, (maybe a little cheese) to this base yet. Not too sure,...
UPDATE:
Here are some more pictures, this time in better light.
Cheers
Scott
