I have finished my first unit of Prussian musketeers. These are entirely Perry plastic figures. I kept 1 command figure out to be a Big Man in Sharp Practice. I purchased extra command sprues so that every 4 stands will include a command stand and flag, because flags are important in a horse and musket era game.
But I'm not obsessing over the shoulder strap colours for each battalion or the different coloured sword knots for each company.
Good to see you won't spoil the process by rivet counting. Good job on the first unit.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteButton counting is what derailed my Napoleonics 12 years ago.
Ausgeseichnet!

DeleteVery nice Prussians - I like the size of your units too!
ReplyDeleteThanks. 16 just looks better than 12 doesn't it?
DeleteAnd more economical than 24!
Sounds like a healthy balance of attention to detail, and not going blind. Nice work on these!
ReplyDeleteBalance is everything.
