I have now completed both D'Hauw's 1st/1st Netherland Brigade and De Eerens' 2nd/1st Netherland Brigade both of which form part of II Corps st Netherlands Division.
Both brigades side by side |
In my last post regarding painting and basing Dutch Militia, I mentioned that the metal figures I was using purchased from eBay from a seller who had them listed as manufacturer unknown.
Rated as poorly trained with low morale they hopefully will have lucky dice |
Fortunately a number of readers (Doug - from Doug's Soldiers blog, Archduke Piccolo -from Archduke Piccolo blog, and two anonymous commenters) were able to identify the figures as Warrior Miniatures 25mm Napoleonics, and part of their Spanish range (click here for more details).
The flag is pure conjecture |
As these are smaller 25mm figures they do seem to work well with the rest of my Napoleonic collection which is primarily 1/72 plastic. They also seem to work with other figures....
Silver bayonet anyone? |
Very nice painting! And thanks for the nod!
ReplyDeleteThanks Doug! I really enjoyed painting them:) As for the nod - no problem!!
DeleteLovely painting of fine figures. Spanish as Dutch militia (obviously) works really well. I really enjoy mixing in true 25 mm figs with 1/72. Must see if I can pick up some Warrior figures sometime. They look great each time I have seen them.
