Limber and ammunition wagon

Greetings everyone.

These past few weeks I have been on a modelling project, for the wargaming club I'm a member (a totally new period for me, I can only say that it has to do with the Great War...) and I didn't have much spare time to indulge myself with anything but.

However, below you will see some photos, of one cannon limber and one ammunition wagon, destined to serve my little men, in wars of the 18th century (WSS, GNW, Seven Years', FIW etc etc). They come from Zvezda's set (Zvezda #8058 Russian Artillery of Peter the Great) and even though each has three horses for every limber/wagon, I reckon that they would pass the test in terms of historical accuracy. The painting is somewhat generic, just for this reason (I couldn't paint the horses green, if that's you were thinking).

Anyhoo, I hope you like 'em.

Have a great Monday night everyone.

PS: Stay tuned for the WW1 project that will follow in due course. :-)

Zvezda Set 8049 Russian Infantry of Peter the Great

Hi everyone!

Hope you are all well.

Having to cope with Greece's warm weather, I came up with the ida of cooling myself by painting some figures for the Great Northern War. Some friends from the Wargames Club I'm in, suggested that we could use Volley and Bayonet rules (by F. Chadwick) for playing the battle of Poltava (among other battles of the war I suppose, but, that was the original plan).

I got some boxes of Zvezda's excellent figures (Russian Infantry of Peter the Great), and came up with this:

I hope you like them (the figures, not the banner - I have to learn how to implement them on poles).

Have a good Monday night everyone!
