Offensive Miniatures French Napoleonic artillery

[14th Brooklyn]

While I painted these last month I only got around to put some photos of them on my blog now:

This is the French Napoleonic 12pdr. battery from Offensive Miniatures (28mm) based for Republic to Empire.

Enjoy,

Spot on. Like the scenery, too - nice terrain.

Nice emperor's daughter.

Thank you guys!

The terrain is just the one we still had set up from our last SAGA game.

Nice job. Don't know how you manage to produce so much in such a short space of time...you're putting me to shame. And it looks like those Prussians of yours are soon going to have an army to fight! I got some of the offensive miniatures Napoleonics but found the detail was so fine that they were very difficult to paint. And they were much slighter than my Front Rank and Calpe. I'm looking forward to Warlord releasing some French guns at some stage now that they have turned their attention to the French....that's a heavy hint for Paul if he is reading this!!

Thank you!

Do not feel shamed... I have quiet a lot of time on my hands these (through unfortunate circumstances). So I can spend three to five hours a day to paint.

I actually liked the fineness of these minis since it also meant lots of nice detail. Size wise you are right... Smaller than Front Rank or Calpe, but a nice match for Foundry, Perry and Warlord.

I too hope that Warlord does some French artillery. More diversity is a great thing. I just hope the price will not be as high as with the Russian artillery. I skiped those due to the price, even though I liked the looks.

lol...yes I got a fright when I saw the price of the Russian artillery! But they have re-adjusted that so that it is now more in line with Front Rank etc. They are listed at £12 now I think.
