1815 Dutch artillery

To accompany my new Dutch Infantry are these gunners. They are actually Armies in Plastic Brits - both the figures and guns. I actually have nine gunners - enough for three guns - but only painted an additional two guns. Once the varnish dries I’ll add them to my Napoleonic boxes - where they’ll soon be joined by some new friends.

1815 Dutch & Belgians

I’ve become involved with another 1/32 Waterloo game. Happily, there is no chance of the figure-painting ‘burnout’ I suffered in the run up to the 2015 lawn game (see here and the subsequent four posts) as due to that game I already have a good number of suitable figures ready for action.  However, despite decent quantities of French, Brits, Prussians - and a few KGL, I had no Dutch or Belgian troops. I knew I had several boxes of the relevant Call to Arms figures in stock, and Lloyd owed me some painting...

I took delivery of the chaps on Wednesday and managed to get them based over the weekend. I think they look pretty good. 

There are three Dutch and one Belgian regiments - the contents of four boxes of ACTA and a few old Timpo Brits. 

The three Dutch regiments. The flags are a bit on the small side but I already had them printed. 

 The Belgians. With Timpo standard and drummer.
