30mm Huzzah! figures painted as, more or less, the Württemberg Garde zu Fuß in 2010 or '11. They await the addition of their white Colonel's color, and I actually have a spare figure all base-coated and in progress.
Three existing regiments of line infantry are now -- for The Grand Duchy of Stollen that is -- all cemented to new laser cut bases with one more to go. I'll tackle these this weekend although I might paint the base surfaces my usual bright green before then if time permits. Then, I can turn my attention to the line regiments comprising the Army of Zichenau before turning my attention to (re-) basing the cavalry and deployed artillery crews.
The figures used for the regiment shown above, and sold to me by Der Alte Fritz back in 2009, are from the limited Huzzah! range, which appeared in 2007 or '08 at the height of the "Old School Wargaming" craze. Sadly, nothing more ever appeared, and the range petered out although the Prussian infantry figures are apparently still sold by Fighting 15s. If memory serves, there was some serious family illness or emergency that got in the way of anymore being developed for the range. Too bad since they have a certain something although I prefer the more slender RSM95, Minden, Fife &Drum, and Crann Tara figures at this point.
In any case, here they are, and they don't look half bad. Next up, a regiment of red-coated, white-faced Hanseatic infantry painted back in late 2012.

I'm very envious of that green and wish I could find something to match it.
Best regards
