Bosniaken Painted Figures

The new Minden Miniatures Bosniaken lancers in the Prussian army.
I recently finished a 12-figure squadron of the new Minden Miniatures Bosniaken lancers for my Prussian army. The Bosniaken were originally formed as a single squadron of uhlans, but eventually the regiment grew to ten squadrons. The Bosniaken were often attached or brigaded with the HR5 Black Hussars.

The squadron uses the MPC-010 Bosniaken Command pack (officer and trumpeter) and several of the MPC-011 Bosniaken lancer packs (2 lancers per pack). All packs include horses and each pack is $12.00.






This was a fun regiment to paint and I will probably had another squadron or two to the regiment. Each squadron had a different lance pennon, so I picked the easiest one to freehand paint - the solid red pennon of the first squadron.

  1. Gorgeous! You do them proud. I spent the afternoon clipping and attaching lances to the hands of my squadron currently on the workbench. Basecoating next.

    Best Regards,

  4. They look stunning! Lovely figures beautifully painted! -- I only hope they fare better than their historical counterparts when they appear in your army!

    1. I'm counting on them being highly comical on the tabletop.😄
