Saxon Chevauxleger from Black Hussar, here painted as the von Polenz regiment.
Very colourful with bright red and light blue!
The sawtooth pattern on the saddlecloths is also quite fetching...
The flag finials are from Warlord Games. The Black Hussar figures do come with an alternative version of this, but I wanted matching ones across my Saxon cavalry and stainless steel for standards (and lances if I do the Uhlan regiment).
This unit was lost in the 1812 campaign and not reformed. The survivors and reinforcements to the Saxon light cavalry reformed into the Prinz Clemens Uhlans and the Hussar regiment.
Very colorful, indeed! Splendid work on the horses too.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jonathan!

Deletelovely looking figures and colors, seems like the miniatures paint up rather quickly too?...

ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thank you very much Iain!
DeleteExcellent painting as ever Mark. Those saddlecloths are perfect. It's a shame that the figures have covered shakos--cramped your painting somewhat!
ReplyDeleteThanks James! Yes some extra decoration would be nice, though at least they sped up the painting!
