A new episode of old vs new.
I just finished a new unit of Russian infantry from the Seven Years War. (From 300 years ago, don't at me.)
The unit in the brighter colors I painted about 20 years ago. I intend to touch them up someday but not now.

Last 2 of my Emsdorf project. Ferdinand of Brunswick (blue) and Nicolaus von Luckner (white).

This is the last unit of my Engagement at Emsdorf project. These are the Second Guard Grenadiers of Hesse-Kassel. Hessians. This only leaves the bits and bobs that will need to be touched up, Artillery that needs to be based and touched up, leaders that need a bit of help so they don't stand out.

My latest painting project. These are Hessian Mansbach infantry for my Engagement at Emsdorf project. (1760) This leaves one unit left and a bit of a touch up on very old painted figures and the project is complete.

This is the last of the French units for my Engagement at Emsdorf project. They are Bercheny Hussars circa 1760. I hope to post pictures of all French units in a separate post once I've put them all together and have a suitable background for pictures.

Word to the wise, let me know who you are if you want me to follow you back.

I painted these guys a while ago. They are Hannoverian Freitag Jägers. 18th century German skirmish troops.
