From RayR: Retreat from Moscow - North Star, 24th Legere (35 points)


Surprise Surprise! Here's more figures for my and Lee's  Retreat from Moscow project. 


These poor chilly souls are painted up to represent a detachment of the French 24th Legere, who fought in Ney's Third Army, 10th Division (Ledru), in Gengoult's Brigade. But in all honesty they could be from any French light infantry unit.


In Sharpe Practice, skirmish units are usually in 6 man units. The figures are from the great range of figures made by North Star for the Muskets & Tomahawks ruleset, which I bought as a set. I've included a commander, once again from North Star's range.
I hope more figures will be added to this great looking range........not that I actually need anymore figures???
But who am I kidding!


Once again I've included their very own base, which I painted up before the Challenge, when we found out no terrain items were allowed this time round.

I'm hoping to add another post later today, if I can get the figures finished?????
Onto the points, nice and easy...
7 figures at 5pts each = 35 pts

TeemuL: I have said this before, but I believe this is a fine example of this Challenge, you and Lee working together for a common target side by side. I'm sure the Challenge itself is a great source of inspiration, but your side duel lifts it to the next level. Talk about the positive peer pressure!

I like these models, too, I have bought something from this range in the past and have been happy. Your brushwork and frosty finish does them justice. Let's see if you finish a second post.

  2. This is a great project - especially for a skirmish set like Sharpes Practice. Very nice work.
