Three Perry Austrian metal mounted commanders that I got with a Perry army deal,although their general prices have gone up the army deals have remained at their original cost, worth considering if you actually want to raise an army! Rapidly painted, they might have a (plastic Victrix) colleague added to their base at a later date but for now this gives me at least some Austrian command
Next up some Austrian artillery support!
All the best Iain
Lovely looking stuff!
ReplyDeleteThanks Michal!

Great looking commanders Iain, sounds like a good deal on the armies.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dave, yes the Perry army deals are good value!

Those turned out well, Iain. How do you find the Perry vs. Victrix? My sense of the latter is the sculpting is a little more in the "heroic" vein, while the Perry stuff is slimmer. Does that hold for Napoleonics as well?
ReplyDeleteThanks Markus, the Victrix heads are slightly bigger but I wouldn't say heroic, I'm more than happy to mix them in the same unit,which is saying a lot in the world of Napoleonic conformity!
DeleteBest Iain
Nice work! Good to see your Napoleonics work continue.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jonathan, rolling along!

Nice one Iain! You are going to need an actual barracks to hold all your toy soldiers at this rate.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mark, I have cleared some more bookshelves which are now groaning under their weight in figures!
DeleteBest Iain
Great trio, Ian. Your collection grows apace.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot, it certainly seems like it!
DeleteBest Iain
Lovely work on the commanders Iain, and it is quite satisfying when you see the bookshelves start to sag as you know you are making progress.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lawrence, yes I'm in danger of overloading!
DeleteBest Iain
Well, they look imposing. Nicely done.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot Suber!

Nice looking generals! 😀
ReplyDeleteThanks Stew!
DeleteBest Iain
Some good characterful figures.
ReplyDeleteGlad you think so,maybe not as characterful as your goblins though!
DeleteBest Iain
Coming along very nicely the Austrian army and those are three great looking Generals.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lee, chugging along!
DeleteBest Iain
Very nice indeed Iain, and a good tip on the Perry bulk purchase option!
ReplyDeleteThanks Keith, I think Mark uses it efficiently!
DeleteBest Iain
Beautifully done Iain 👍
ReplyDeleteThanks Matt,very kind!
DeleteBest Iain
Superbly painted figures, perfect for leading your Austrians into battle. Thanks for the tip with the Perry deals.
ReplyDeleteThanks Pat, it does of course mean a sudden influx to ones lead/plastic mountain of course!
DeleteBest Iain
These are great sculpts, imo, with just the right amount of animation for commanders.
ReplyDeleteTou really done these justice with your brushwork too.
Totally agree about the amount of animation in the sculpts, glad you like the finish Joe!
DeleteBest Iain
Great looking mounted commanders, Iain. Yes, the price increase isn't that bad - I'm still waiting on their plastic Russian cav set.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dean, I think it's don't hold your breath on that one!
DeleteBest Iain
Nice work on the Kaiserlick high command!
ReplyDeleteIt's not the figure price, it's the shipping from the UK. Ouch!
Thanks Peter, I'm pretty sure if you spend enough they do world wide free shipping?
DeleteBest Iain
Just checked, orders to the US are automatically post free and they remove the VAT.

Nice work Iain!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ray!

Big hats and waving swords about enthusiastically, very much a trio of commanders. Looking great Iain, especially for quick paintjobs.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dai, I was in a hurry but painting single figures can be fun when you're used to painting units!
