From ErikP: Prussian's in Lutzen 1813 - Napoleonic's (42 points)

This is my first Painting Challenge and first entry, 40 foot figures by Warlord Games Epic (13.5mm) scale, painted as Prussia's 11th Regiment (2nd Silesian), 2nd Battalion. 

This is the beginning of a project for a Napoleonic battle at Lutzen 1813 between the French and Prussians. The campaign book I'm working off is by Dave Brown "1813 the Battles for German" written for the rule set General d'Armée. For the unit uniform reference, I used the website Uniforms during the Hundred Days Campaign.  The website is in French, but you can translate it to many languages, if need be.

Back of the line.

I am building these figures to be able to play both General d'Armée (2nd Ed), and Lasalle (2nd Ed) sets of rules.   

These figures come in ten-man strips, for two strips per base, but I cut them in half to make five-man strips for a 10-man base, these bases are 30mmx20mm. I've really enjoyed painting these, but I need to get faster. 

Basing: Also, I off set the two strips of figures on each base.  For me, this gives a nicer look to the closely packed infantry. My first painting of Epic figures was a French Infantry Battalion, and I put them directly behind each other, but to me, it looked a little too perfect.
 

Playing Napoleonic's is how I first started in Miniature Wargaming. At that time, I painted my first Army, 25mm Prussians. Followed up a few years later painting 15mm (Mini Figs) again Prussians. Now decades later, painting Prussian infantry again is like coming home after a long trip.   

This project has been on a back burner since these figures came out, and now it begins.

The points summary:

40 x 10mm foot @ 1 point = 40 points.

Total = 40 points.

Squirrel points = 0, (Prussian Napoleonic)

 

============================

Sylvain: Many "firsts" for you: First Challenge, first submission, new project... These little figurines are very detailed and the basing is excellent. If the rest of the army is like this, you will be hosting fabulous games. I will add 2 points for the flag. Excellent travail!
