Below are a few pics of some of the work completed to date. These are AB15mm figures (my personal favourites) from Eureka (highly recommend Nic and his team's service and quality - fortunately I live in 20 minutes drive from his shop) and painted with Vallejo Acrylics. I use Windsor&Newton brushes, typcially just a size 1.
I should acknowledge my good gaming and painting buddy Vincenzo, a small group of dedicated but far away NapsBattles players in Adelaide (you know who you are!) and the general painting and gaming community (especially all those TMPers) who have opened my eyes and mind to the brave new world of miniatures painting (I might post some 'old' painting efforts to contrast).
Basing is for Napoleon's Battles ruleset. Basing technique after that Mark Case's excellent blog (see links).
Insurrection Hussars (Eisenberg Comitat)

Hungarian Grenadiers
These were finished yesterday! (I had to paint something while waiting for the rest of my Hussar order from Eureka!)

Some of the Landwehr
These guys were painted late last year, and are a mix of Styrian 'townies' and 'levies' and Upper Austrian Landwehr, 'brigaded' together here.

Hope you enjoyed my first blog (ever). Please leave a comment. I will try to post some more progress as we move towards Raab later this (?) year!
