A big part of the hobby to me is digging through illustrations (of whom Michael Bartling seems to have a never ending stream off).
I really always liked the images where dogs accompany uniformed men, or even take action in one way or another. I even bought a Sheppard-set from Foundry just to get my hands on the dog.
I used him with this formation of frenchman.
I soon came to realize that I wanted more dogs on my battlefields and spoke to Michael Bartling about it. We tried to find dog-races that would work in the 7yw too.
You'll see a release of Napoleonic era dogs in the beginning of next year.

Again quite touching.
Healthy peasant with his dog.
Wealthy peasant with his dogs.
Well-known picture. :--)
I love the facial exression of the riding bloke.

I hope you liked the images.

John,
AntwortenLöschenThank you, that is very kind of you. I'll read into it and try to understand how I come to deserve this badge of honor.
I am a huge lover of hounds so this comes as good news. Warlord Games has some very nice English Mastiffs and Wolfhounds in their collection. I've also seen some great looking dogs from railway accessories. Nonetheless, I look forward to seeing what you come up with.
AntwortenLöschenCheers Curt,
LöschenThank you for the Links. Interesting!
Looking forward to posting wips soon.

I have a Beagle, she comes every where with me. I am now trying to teach her to paint 28mm Naps.
AntwortenLöschenI used to have a beagle. I should've thought of teaching it how to paint.
