Bataljon Jagers No. 27

I have been cracking on with a larger unit of Dutch-Belgian infantry for the Hundred Days collection.

The 27th Light Battalion was part of van Bylandt's Brigade, taking part in both the battles of Quatre Bras and Waterloo.

All the figures are from the Front Rank range now available from Gripping Beast.

Some close up's of the individual bases showing warts and all including what appears to be some terrible mould lines I missed in clean-up.

The flag for the colour party is from  GMB Designs

Three bases of skirmishers were also added to bolster the brigade skirmish line in our GdA2 games

There were five flank company figures left and a single centre company, so this base is a bit of a mash-up.

This unit brings to an end my participation in another years Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge I hope the momentum that built up these past three months for painting and blogging can be maintained.

7th Netherlands National Militia Battalion

I'm clearing the decks before I get started proper on the Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge and these fellows have been stalled in a partially painted state for far too long.

The figures were all from Front Rank before they stopped fulfilling orders, and hopefully will soon be available from Gripping Beast after the transfer is completed as I'll be needing a few more.

I really don't know why these took so long to paint, but I found them really tedious, despite the much simpler uniforms than other Napoleonic troops I've painted recently, maybe it was that they are all in the same pose with no variety.

The colour is from GMB Designs.

I plan to try to recreate Bylandt's Brigade so I'll need two more Militia battalions, a Line and a Light battalion.

I chose to do my flank companies with the white over orange plumes.

Despite taking so long to clear the backlog I'm happy how they came out, hopefully the next batch will not take so long.

Landwehr Battalion Hameln

While painting the recent Hanoverian skirmishers (here and here) I thought that it would actually be rather nice to field a full battalion of these lovely figures from Front Rank so I set some aside for adding to a formed unit.

I ordered some more firing line and command and also enough stuff for another couple of battalions marching in shakoes not long before the ordering portal was taken off line.

It's great to note that the Front Rank range has now been acquired by Gripping Beast and that the range will be available again from the middle of this month.

I've painted these to represent Landwehr Battalion Hameln part of 5th Hanoverian Brigade of Thomas Pictons 5th Division during the Hundred Days campaign.

The standards are from GMB Designs and it's not known what colour they should be but a pair of white works for me.

Some close-ups of the rest of the stands in the unit.

I also based up one of the officers singly, he'll make a great commander for our Sharpe Practice games.

That's two new units of red coats and a load of Anglo-allied commanders painted in the past couple of weeks, I'm itching for a game with them.
