Prussian Napoleonic Cavalry

It has been a while since I've posted anything here.  I have been painting figures and vehicles but they are for a special project that is not yet ready to be unveiled.  Heh, heh!

But in preparation for a bicentennial battle commemorating the Befreiungskrieg ("Prussian War of Liberation), I needed a couple of more Prussian cavalry regiments.  Luckily I had two regiments that were bought almost completely painted.  Of the sixteen figures I only had to paint two from scratch, while I did some major and minor repainting of the other fourteen.

So without much else ado, I present two light cavalry regiments of the cavalry reserve, III (Prussiche) Korps, Army of the North.

Ulanen Regiment Nr. 1, West Prussiche

All of the riders and horses are vintage Hinchliffe.  I still need to figure out a way to arm the Pomeranians with lances, but that came happen later.  Right now it is back to the "Special Project."
