Selfmade flags

My painting friday was spend in front of the computer. But not as usual to work work work, but to make a unique set of flags for my Landwehr and Reserves.

First of all - yes, I went overboard, but the flags carried by the Landwehr remain an obscure subject. Enough lack of evidence for me to start adding funny stuff.

The 2 white flags are rather serious while the 2 black ones are a mere product of my fantasy. I took a Hussar-skull and a Humpen Bier and think that fits nicely with the spirit of the Landwehr in 1813.

Warlord meets Calpe

I don't like the Warlord plastics really. The new command-set drummer/ensign-combo is great tough. Some card-board under the base really did the trick.

Hallo Welt :@)

Grossbeeren was one of the major battles that paved the way to the victory over the french emperor at Leipzig.

To us Berlinians it was even more since the ever so angry Buelow
managed to stop and seriously damage Reyniers 7th Korps with an all prussian force right in front of the prussian capital.

The wargamer certainly will like the wide choice of uniforms as there was French, Saxons, Wuerttembergers, and on the other side Prussian line and reserve formations fleshed out with the newly raised Landwehr present on the field. And yes, I admit there also was a russian 12pounder battery and a swedish horseartillery battery roaming around.

Mission:
I treat this blog more like a website and update topics rather than making a new post for every miniature I paint.

I hope you enjoy my work!
