Completed a few small things on my Von Laurenz Musketeers yesterday. The main things left to complete are the muskets and the central flag design. I tried painting a vaguely Austrian/Russian-looking eagle on one side and was not pleased with the result, so I painted over it with orange and again have a blank orange lozenge to illustrate. Anyway, finishing by September 1st will be no problem although the application of a clear protective “varnish” might have to wait until next weekend, depending on available time this week.
Here's a picture illustrating my (S-L-O-W) progress with the second company of Stollen's Leib (Grand Duchess Sonja's Own) Grenadiers. You can see I'm doing things a bit differently this time, altering the painting process to keep it interesting basically. This evening, I'll do the white gaiters and, if that goes reasonably quickly, and time allows, the red breeches. Still lots to do, but I like the way these fine fellows are shaping up along side the completed 1st company that's standing in formation just off camera, to the left here. Until tonight then!

The Elector of Vulgaria, the high mighty and impotent Vleg Donislov has requested pictures of the brave regiments.
Assuming that you are unable to produce verification of an Army the Grand Duchy of Stollen could find itself in trouble with it's neighbors!
Peace can only be maintained through a verifiable defense.
