More fun with Turkish troops

I was able to push this project forward.

Old Glory PT III - Muslim Patrol!

Day job keeps me busy. Disney is on my heels and and and. So still no time to get my beloved Westfalia carts done, but a band of Nezam Zedid which are part of a Painting comission that I've

accepted to accelerate Westfalia a bit. 

These Turkish troops were organized after Western example and lead by foreign officers.

My costumer has send some fancy Austrian 7yw NCO along with his Turks. I was adding some suitable saber incl. Holster from a Westfalia set with exchange parts. Finally I was painting him in the 

same scheme like the Rankers since the appearance of such officers is a mystery and it simply looks good.

More Old Glory

I finished my unit of Janissaries by attaching 2 groups of Arab Militia.

Next up is (finally) some Westfalia-stuff I was receiving from Niels. 

Sled-gun here I come!

New Saxon Musketeers

Progress on the Saxon-front is a bit slower than expected. Yet things fall into place with the guns and carts being almost ready.

Now I have the pleasure to present you with the upcoming Saxon Musketeers in campaign-dress. They have a rather realistic mixture of headress and are meant to add some variety to the existing formation.

I am painting these for a buddy and I have to admit that I really like these chunky blokes.

Saechsischer Patronenwagen

I've seen this vehicle for the first time in a book that was released before Germany got reunited for the 10th time. There was a Patronenwagen (Ammunition carrier) for the Infantry and the Cavalry. The 'Hauptpark' of the army had more than 80 such vehicles, which must've made them a very common sight.

I personally love the Trittbretter as well as the nice texture of the side-parts.

The wheels are Bavarian from my knowledge since our own Saxon wheels will only turn up on tuesday! :--)
