As you may have guessed by the title, for today's second post I have more Retreat from Moscow figures. These 9 figures represent a detachment from the 2nd Duchy of Warsaw infantry regt, who were part of the V Corps, 18th Division under Brigadier Grabowski, but they could easily be any of the Polish troops that fought as part of the Grand Armee.
Welcome to the Painting Challenge. Here you will find the fabulous, fevered work of miniature painters from around the world. While participants come from every ethnicity, gender, age and nationality, they have three things in common: they love miniatures, they enjoy a supportive community, and they want to set themselves against the Challenge. This site features the current year's event along with the archives of past Painting Challenges. Enjoy your visit and remember to come back soon.

From RayR: Retreat from Moscow - 2nd Duchy of Warsaw Infantry (45 points)
This time round they're mainly Murawski Miniatures, now sold by Skytrex, with a few Perry's thorwn in for good measure.
Six of the figures are in greatcoats, while the remaining two were in plain uniform, so out came the greenstuff and now they're both toasty and warm, one figure more than the other!!
The Command figure is also form Murawski and he's sitting on some new sabot bases that me and Lee had made especially by Martin and the team at Warbases. the 25mm hole is offset so it allows a bit more decoration on the base.
The points should be pretty easy for this post, 9 figures x 5pts = 45pts
With maybe a little bonus for the added blankets??? You never know your luck?
TeemuL: Nice (and living) addition to your project, Ray. Good looking reinforcements, I guess I have nothing new to say, I have used all my praise words already. And Ray, don't push your luck too much. ;)
