About the Project

I've always floated around napoleonic wargames but I've never concentrated on it. I've done tiny 10m andxa bit of 28m. This new year I want to work on napoleonic minis for 3 different systems....maybe four.

For the jaegers I have gone for perry miniatures instead of 3D prints because I don't need many of them. I've gone for a mix of winter and summer uniforms For the jaegers I have gone for perry miniatures instead of 3D prints because I don't need many of them.

Looking at the rules for soldiers of Napoleon I think this system works better for smaller scales. I already have a French army in 10mm so had a look at the army lists. I have enough minis for three brigades which us great. I need to dig out my British alied army and see what they have. The armies need a bit of a repair. I also found what scenery I have for this scale. I think I need moreLooking at the rules for soldiers of Napoleon I think this system works better for smaller scales.

Thrown in with the rest of my Russians I have a small band of supernatural investigators that I printed from lost heresy.  I thought while i was sticking to the Russian theme I'dget my silverbayonet minis done at the same time and get some blurry pics done. Heading home after the Christmas break tomorrow so i can get to basing. Thrown in with the rest of my Russians I have a small band of supernatural investigators that I printed from lost heresy.

Every Christmas I spend a couple weeks  away in Ireland and I always take some minis with me to paint. In preparation I 3D printed some Russians from battle cat miniatures. For £15 you can get stl files for the vast majority of infantry. I've printed off three 12 man infantry units. One 12 man grenadiers unit and 8 light infantry men an officers.Every Christmas I spend a couple weeks away in Ireland and I always take some minis with me to paint.

These are the paints I took with me. I used a shaving case as a mini travel bag. All the minis survived the flight in tact. I hope they survive the journey back.These are the paints I took with me.
