Building the lead pile....

All the lead has been accumulated for the next army project - this will be Saxe-Jarlsberg. This army will comprise mostly historical units from the Brunswick SYW army with a couple of added extras.

Last weekend I had a 'cast-athon', I used my new moulds and also a couple of the old ones; 150 figures cast overall. The mounted infantry officers are a mix of Front Rank and Elite Miniatures.

I finished off the army with a couple of Ebay purchases - some von Kleist Uhlans and Hanoverian infantry to be a small Freikorps
All previous and new items now placed in boxes, all prepped and ready to start painting ....
Overall the little army will comprise:

  • Cavalry - Garde De Corps, Dragoons, Hussars
  • Infantry - 4 infantry regiments, 1 converged grenadier battalion, 1 grenadier regiment
  • Light troops - jagers mounted and on foot
  • Small Freikorps - Uhlans and infantry battalion

Freshly minted, as yet unpainted castings have a beauty all their own! Can't wait to see the army develop.

Kind Regards,
