Russian Jager Skirmishers - Perry 28mm

I'm resuming posting of my Russians on a weekly basis, as many more units have been painted since my last post in January. I've now painted a sizable force equal to the half the army at Borodino if fighting at at 1/50 ratio (Regimental scale), or the whole army at 1/100 ratio (Brigade scale). 

I'll start by posting some humble skirmishing Jager, these are Perry metal models, useful in games where individual units are representing battalions or regiments rather than Brigades. They make six variants in a pack so this is 4 packs of them. On the larger bases to protect the muskets as usual for my skirmish bases.

  1. Very nice work on them, I like the idea of bigger bases for skirmishing figures, certainly avoids the broken bayonet problem, they look great.

  4. Lovely painting as always Mark. Half-way to the army at Borodino is a fantastic point to reach too!
    Best wishes, James

  5. Nicely done Mark, and welcome back. I too have begun using deeper bases, having lost too many bayonets to fat fingers!
