It will be a few months before I get to paint mine, but to say I am looking forward to t is something of an understatement. Your regiment of Black Hussars is really something to behold, especially when the photos are enlarged.<br /><br />Best Regards,<br /><br />StokesWSTKS-FM Worldwidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14173042438761572040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-3405489103765784832010-06-14T06:55:08.184-05:002010-06-14T06:55:08.184-05:00I initially bought 36 figures, so not wanting to p...I initially bought 36 figures, so not wanting to put any of them to waste, I will probably paint six more and make this a 36 figure unit. Same for the Bayreuth dragoons (20 of 36 are painted so far).<br /><br />I will probably paint some Minden Croats next though, after the Connoisseur figures. heck, maybe even before the Connoisseur figures. :)Der Alte Fritzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01578422757511400566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-3947930426431580972010-06-14T04:35:04.754-05:002010-06-14T04:35:04.754-05:00I had thought of a sixth squadron, just like Bill....I had thought of a sixth squadron, just like Bill. Of course another option would be to cut it down to four squadrons by giving one of them to me . . . but I suspect that that idea will not fall onto fertile ground . . . *sigh* . . . they do look wonderful, sir.<br /><br /><br />-- JeffBluebear Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07595975572873838050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-29642275338690076952010-06-14T04:08:07.909-05:002010-06-14T04:08:07.909-05:00Jim,
