Prince George Regiment

Finally i have finished the Prince George Regiment of the Danish Army for the WSS period. Its a 20 Figure Battalion. The First Battalion of all Danish Regiments had the Grenadiers attached which is why i have added 4 grenadier figures to the 1st Battalion. The second battalion will be at the normal 16 figures which i think is a good average working on a 1:40 ratio. These are the same figures and basic painting standard that we are offering in our Army starter deals on offer through our web site. http://www.battlelinescenics.com.au/

3 new Supply Wagons

As we are always looking at new items i recently can across these three supply wagons which i thought are worth adding to our 28mm accessories section in our web store. They can be supplied with either oxen, bullocks, or horses

Painting standard for our army starter packs

Some of you may be aware that we are currently offering painted ACW and WSS army starter packs for sale off our web store. We have been asked for some pictures of what the basing and painting standard is like. Below you will see a group of Confederate infantry based on our 3mm thick ply base with basic colours and shading applied.

My Painting Area

I decided to take a few pictures of my painting area. I have some Perry Napoleonics that i am currently re baseing on 40 x 40 squares to use with General De Brigade on a 1:40 Ratio. The Skirmish bases are a trial to see how it works as this is how the regiments skirmishes will appear when deployed. I have also decided to start a new project which is a Danish Malbarian Army of about 10 battalions. This is the Grenadier company of the Prince George Regiment with the final coat of Army Painter Matt anti shine to follow. All first Battalions had the Grenadier company attached. As i finish more i will post some further pic's. The other picture is my some Oliver who has started his own painting service $6.00 for Foot figure & $4.00 for Horses. He is currently painting and basing some wargames factory Celts for Gavin Shanks which are nearly done.

Its a Good Day to be Prussian

I spent Thursday at my friend Mark Temples place and we had a most enjoyable SYW game my Prussians against an elite corp of French. The Prussians were myself and youngest son Oliver with the French being Mark and another good guy Brett who was up from Melbourne. Whilst the French were out numbered considerably they were of exceptional quality being mostly Guards and Grenadiers. In the end Prussian command and control with some nice fire power and great Cavalry won the day. "Go those great Cuirassiers"

Easter Muster Weekend 09

The Easter Muster has ended for another year and was yet again an excellent weekend for socialising and war gaming. Thanks again go to Gerry Webb from Castaway Arts for hosting the weekend. I have included some photos of some of the games that were there, these are the large Sudan Game put on by my friend Scott Robertson, A plains War game which looked like excellent fun hosted by my other Friend and gaming companion Mark Temple, and last but not least there is a picture of a Doctor Who game hosted by Allan and Gavin which also looked liked a great game with some fantastic scenery. For Battleline Scenics, we had a good couple of days coming away with a couple of battalions of painted Napoleonic Prussians from my friend Nathan Vinson at Elite miniatures (excellent) and a new project which i have started and will post some initial pictures of soon. This is an Italian Battalion of six companies for the Sudan figures supplied by Castaway Arts, to this i will add a company (10 figures) of light infantry, two mountain guns and a unit of lancers. Enjoy the photos: cheers Kevin

Plastic Pike and Shot

We now have something new to add to our web site as we have just received some boxes of the Warlord Games Plastic Pike and Shot. The box gives you enough variety to assemble 40 stout infantry and eight flags, a painting guide, bases, all you need to rally your forces for Charles, King of England or the Parliment.
