From KentG: 28mm Perry Miniatures Dragoons (110 Points)

This batch of 11 Dragoons is more of a test run for the 5 boxes to come, I wasn't even sure i'd paint these as they were missing some carbines and other bits, also one arm was wrong but i thought what the heck good practice,  i got a new book for Christmas painting war French army so i tried out a couple of the horses they had in the mag i need to work on them but i'm happy with the first attempt. also need to work on the green not quite right but as i said a few more boxes and we shall have it.



 I'm one stand short but i'm sure i'll find a couple of them hiding somewhere.

Beautiful and prolific work as always Kent. 

I've done a few units of these in the past and can attest that they are great models to work on. I must say I really like the leopard skin helmet wrap you did for the officer - lovely stuff.  I think you certainly have 'your eye in' for the upcoming boxes!

And with this entry Kent slips past the pack, back into the lead in the points race. Crack on Kent!

  1. Amazing stuff - quite the varied repertoire there, Kent!

    These guys are incredible, impeccably painted.

    Which Chapter did you say they belonged to...?

  3. You never have enough Dragoons when playing Napoleonics, five boxes will be on the safe side :-) Excellent work

  4. Great stuff Kent! How on earth do you manage to crank out so much so fast and at such a quality. Unreal!

  5. 10 years of constantly painting for other people makes you paint fast but have to keep the quality high otherwise you don't get paid

  7. Wow Kent, 5 boxes truly? We're in for a treat if they're all just as good as these. Great stuff!

  8. I quite like these, Kent! I have a box or two for my stalled Penninsular War project. I like the clean brushwork and the extra detail on the officer! Grand work!

  9. Lovely work Kent - any time you want to include information about paint colours and techniques when you're doing napoleonics you'll have at least one attentive reader.

  12. One of my favourite units of any period and very well painted. They look good on their own but with another 5 boxes of their fellows they will look awesome!
