This are based in groups of 8 suitable to play Sharp Practice, although more likely will se action under the incoming set to be released by Reissweitz Press (the sister company to TooFatLardies) based on the ACW rules "Pickett's Charge"
The Portuguese ha the same flags system of the British and deployed the King's and Regiment colours. The flags are included in the box and correspond to the 21st Line Infantry Regiment.
With this entry I add 80 points to both my total score in the Challenge and to my account in the Sharp Practice duel.
Benito, These are a glorious blue! I really like the detail on these fellows that you achieved. from the mix in headgear and trousers, even the basing. They really look grimly determined marching across the baked Spanish ground. You said 80pts, but you must've forgotten we really like the pagentry ad anyone carrying colors gets a few extra pips. So I'll add another 15 just because (soto voice of "The Dude" Big Lebowski) "It ties the whole regiment together, man!"
Two more stunning units! Very nice Benito.
ReplyDeleteLovely clean crisp lines with bold colours. You have a very distinctive and effective paint style.
ReplyDeleteCracking work Benito! I agree with you on the Warlord plastics. They are nice, but still quite far behind Perrys. Though they are quite useful for the large masses. Just throw in some Perry to bring in variety and they work nicely.
ReplyDeleteEye wateringly bright and bold colours. They will stand out on the tabletop and I hope they serve you well.
ReplyDeletebeautiful work, you really nailed these

Very nice and colourful Benito :)
ReplyDeleteexcellent job
ReplyDeleteLovely regiment there, Benito!
ReplyDeleteLovely looking napoleonic figures, beautifully painted. I agree that warlord isn't as nicely sculpted as the Perry plastics and certainly on the French line I'd agree that the metal command isn't as good as the plastic rank and file. What I do like is that their figures and especially their recent chasseurs go together much faster than any other makes for which I am thankful! Very nice colour combos.
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Fantastic work Benito. Love the flashy blue and yellow.
ReplyDeleteGreat work! I really like the vibrant blue of their uniforms.
ReplyDeleteVery nice!
ReplyDeleteLovely work Benito. I really like the blues you've used for these.
ReplyDeleteAs a suggestion, one thing you can try is to lightly trim your flags with the edge colour, or black. The same goes with the folded part over the flagstaff - touch it up with a dab of paint. I find this gets rid of the exposed white paper and finishes them off nicely.
