6mm Napoleonic Russian Lancers</h2>
Sorry for delay in updating blog, but started a new job Working weekends at Edinburgh, which is a 5 hour train ride away and results in me losing Friday and Monday traveling and most of Monday.<br />
<br />
There have be some new additions to the Russians, with more pictures to follow later this week when I have completed the basing.<br />
<br />
The following is a taster of what's to come.<br />

<br />
I am not normally a fan of 28mm WWII as I already have a large 10mm Collection, but this offer could not be missed out on.<br />
<br />
This is what I will receive so far with nearly £35,000 already pleaded to the project.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjM1uCMpaGykVgfr-8CSFXu2ytliURqk0jqm7g91SjTGtHgRz8HNKXt-dL3Bg9Af1sVCL-h0FYKekC_Y9T5lkmYppwEcSHxUwTLawhVgg3-a2Fl4797BD08JxVpLp6yvj3Kaky41WQsTf4/s1600/winter+war.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjM1uCMpaGykVgfr-8CSFXu2ytliURqk0jqm7g91SjTGtHgRz8HNKXt-dL3Bg9Af1sVCL-h0FYKekC_Y9T5lkmYppwEcSHxUwTLawhVgg3-a2Fl4797BD08JxVpLp6yvj3Kaky41WQsTf4/s320/winter+war.jpg" width="131" /></a></div>
<br />
A total of around 240 miniatures for only £120.00 plus artillery, HMG's, and tanks not forgetting field Kitchen's for both side.<br />
<br />
Before this project end I can see myself upping my pledge to add extras to each side.<br />
<br />

This is my current Russian collection for the Battle of Borodino which I hope to do in the near future.<br />
<br />
30 Battalions of Line Infantry<br />
8 Battalions of Jaegers<br />
5 Regiments of Dragoons<br />
5 Regiments of Cuirassiers<br />
3 Regiments of Hussars<br />
4 Regiments of Cossacks<br />
5 Gun Batteries<br />
4 Command stands<br />
<br />
I would love to take credit for the painting of these figures, but they have been painted for me by various different painters.<br />
<br />

<br />
The scale of the project and my lack of spare time (I am self employed), I had no choice but have the majority of my 6mm Napoleonic figures painted for me.<br />
<br />
This still leaves me with the figures to base, and flag (still to be done on the Russians) and the terrain.<br />
<br />
This is not the only 6mm Napoleonic project the I have on the go, am also building up the British Army for Waterloo which the majority of them are finished (pics to follow)<br />

<br />
I have been a wargames and figure collector for 30 years, and have a large lead pile that just keeps getting bigger (like most people I know).<br />
<br />
Most of my interest is in the Napoleonic wars for which I have a large 28mm collection and also a large 6mm collection.<br />
<br />
I am also interested in WWII, ancients, and fantasy roleplayingAnonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03113574462507527691noreply@blogger.com5
