From RayR: The Retreat from Moscow meets The Silver Bayonet (42 points)

 

For my second entry of the day I've gone all silver Bayonet on ya! I've no real interest in the game Silver Bayonet, but I've been a long admirer of the figures produced for the rules, they're so full of character. So I took full advantage of the recent offer from North Star, where you could buy the figures individually, rather than the unit boxes they usually sell in.

I managed to get this unit finished in time to take some pics and post it up. Sitting them on a radiator to help them dry quicker did help!

I painted the figures at the back first, the chap back o the left was supposed to be for my Haitian project, but Haiti's too hot for him,

The figure on the left, has a greenstuff cloak added

as does the Cuirassier on the right, all the others are as they came in the post. Which is a shame, they're both really nice figures and I've hidden all that wonderful detail under a cloak!!

I'm not sure if these will become a unit of stragglers or command figures if I'm being honest, they'll probably be a bit of both in the end.

Points mean prizes and these bad boys will give me 40 points.

8 figures@ 5pts each. 

Plus anything Teemu wants to give me for the conversion work ;0)

TeemuL: More winter minis, well done Ray! As before, you have found a nice recipe for snow and frost on minis. Green stuff cloaks are worth couple of points, when asked nicely. And they seem to be nice minis by themselves, it would be nice to see them next to the other parts of your army. They will add some spice to your units, that's for sure.
