Prussian Command - Perry 28mm

Week 24 and here is the end of my backlog posting! To finish here we have a selection of Prussian Generals from Perry. These are from the two command packs Perry makes, plus a pack of metal dragoons.
For the aides in green I just used metal Prussian dragoons, which are not quite right but near enough from what was available. And given it is late Prussia probably possible in any case (e.g. detached Jager).
The figure in the foreground below is the free Colonel you get when you buy three or more boxes of Perry Allied Prussian/Russian Cavalry, and comes with option to make him either a Prussian as here, or a Russian.
Though I don't imagine he'll see the table with the small Prussian force I have planned, I also couldn't resist painting up Blucher and chums in their grim grey very un-Napoleonic uniforms.

So after 6 months of posting every week, I've finally posted all my presently painted Napoleonics - phew! It will be bit of a wait until the next lot due to work demands over next couple of months, but rest assured, there will be more to come! :) Thanks for looking.

Prussian Dragoons - Perry 28mm

Week 23 of backlog, and this time it is a couple of units of Prussian Dragoons. These are from the Perry Allied Cavalry plastic boxset. 

A change from the darker Prussian blue, I chose Vallejo Andrea Blue for the highlight, as coats for Prussian Dragoons were a significantly lighter shade of blue than was used for most other uniforms. I also went for red facings for both units in this instance to add even more colour.

Prussian Horse Artillery - Perry 28mm

Week 22 of the backlog, and here are some Prussian horse artillery. These are similar to the line artillery I posted last week, but the crew wear the longer litewka coat, and they have white rather than black crossbelts. Perry models again.
