The Eureka figures are well proportioned and have painted up easily, they're a cross between the more formal Front Rank look and the more animated Elite type so other than the cost (which I was prepared to pay to get the Austrian cavalry brigade compleated) I'm happy enough.
I decided that I didn't want to paint the red facings of the first two green coated Chevauleger regiments, the only other regiment with green coats at this time 1794-5 (other than the Latour regiment who wore cocked hats) was the 4th with blue facings.
So onto the pics
First off a general view of the 4th (Baron Vincent) regiment:
A closer shot:
Various individual pictures,
At least the Austrians now have a suitable cavalry brigade to oppose the four (rather crappy) French cavalry regiments on the other side of the table.
More 15mm ACW, then re-basing the 15mm FPW French.
Ta Ta for now,

Wow! They are special!
ReplyDeleteThe detail is top-notch, especially the saddle-cloth and flag pole. You must have gone cross-eyed doing them! :-D
They look damn good!
ReplyDeleteThey are excellent!
ReplyDeleteThanks lads, I did enjoy doing them, just took on a few to many at a time, back with 15mm for a while, I find it helps to change scale once in a while.

My only point would be that the swords look just a bit on the large side- thouhg the Hosses are very nice.
