Sticking with my 15mm project of Vienna 1683 once again.
The Crème de la Crème of the Allied army The Polish Winged Hussars are my next entry.
Unfortunately in the scenario there are only 2 6 figure units, which seems a bit mean to me, so I will be painting up more after the Challenge. I mean why would you not???
The figures are from Essex Miniatures
But once again, come with no command, so figures from the Generals packs have been used and converted into standard bearers, but I suppose I could have just used a normal Hussar figure instead?
The photo's I've taken really don't d these figures the justice they deserve.
The pennants and the flag on the left were bought from Ebay from Wargame Designs, while the flag on the right was found online, sorry, I can't remember where?
Two Winged Hussars, the wings were a pain in the butt to glue in place, I had to you a small blob of Greenstuff to hold them in place. Then when I started painting them, I wished I hadn't glued them in place, because they were a bugger to paint the inside of the wings as they were so close together.
One Winged Hussars, we're a doddle to paint up!!
Onto the points 12 figures at 4 points each gives me 48 points!
