Russian Line Horse Artillery this week, from Perry and Commissar Miniatures. The two guns on the left are Commissar - I believe I bought them before Perry released their own Russian Horse Artillery, which are the four guns on the right. The Commissar figures are slightly smaller and have gloves, but otherwise roughly compatible.
Russian Horse Artillery wore the same horsehair crest helmets as the Russian Dragoons, switching to Shakos in 1814, which was after most Napoleonic actions involving Russians had concluded.
Lovely work again,not seen the Commissar miniatures before but they look pretty decent and seem to go well with the Perry ones.
ReplyDeleteThanks Donnie, yes they are pretty good!
DeleteI too have not seen Commissar figures before. Very nice and you have painted these all up beautifully Mark.

DeleteLovely work Mark. I have a soft spot for Russian horse artillery having owned one on my original Hinchliffe Russian army in the '70s. It was horrendously expensive points-wise under the WRG rules.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mark, one of my friends has included some Hinchcliffe cav, look better than I expected for such an old range!
DeleteFantastic work Mark
ReplyDeleteThank you!
