Redoubt ACW Cavalry Sale


ACW dismounted Union cavalry - Redoubt Miniatures. Click the pictures to enlarge the view.

The next items in Der Alte Fritz's fabulous Summer Sale of Soldiers consist of a nice collection of 28mm American Civil War (ACW) mounted and dismounted cavalry, from a variety of sources. All of the figures were painted by Dennis Smail, of Lexington, Kentucky. There are three parts of the collection: the Redoubt Union dismounted cavalry, the CSA mounted and dismounted cavalry brigade, and finally, a regiment of Union cavalry with its dismounts. A discount of approximately 10% is available for anyone wishing to buy all three lots at one time.

Contact me by e-mail at: altefritz1740@yahoo.com for more information.

Redoubt Union Dismounted Cavalry (44 figures - $300.00)


Redoubt Union cavalry (left wing) deployed in skirmish order with horse holders to the rear.


Right wing of the deployed Union cavalry - Redoubt Miniatures painted by Dennis Smail.

The Redoubt figures are mounted on single bases, 3/4 - inch wooden squares except for several figures firing from the kneeling position, which required larger bases. There are also two pair of horse holder stands (1 horse holder with 4 horses). The figures are painted to an exceptionally high quality and they have a lot of character and animation to them. It seems as if no two figures are identical. You could leave the figures "as is" on single stands, or rebase them to your favorite rules system. If you game the ACW, you certainly need cavalry to screen your lines, or to race ahead to secure a vital terrain feature and fight dismounted, while awaiting the arrival of the Union infantry.

Union Cavalry Regiment with dismounts & horseholders - $200.00


Union cavalry regiment (22 mounted and 15 dismounted and 1 horseholder stand)


Close up view of the mounted regiment. The figures are from a variety of manufacturers including Connoisseur, Dixon and Hinchcliffe. There are many conversions with extra weapons or packs or bandanas added to the original figure.


The dismounted version of the Union cavalry regiment, with an extra horseholder stand in the rear.

The Union cavalry depicted in the second lot are painted to a decent standard and have seen a fair amount of table top action over the years. The figures come from a wide variety of companies including Connoisseur, Dixon, Eagle and possibly a few others. Many of the figures have been converted via head swaps, new arms, additional carbines or pistols attached to the figure, neckerchiefs/bandanas, and other modest changes. The regiment does not depict any particular Union regiment, so you could add your own GMB Designs flag to finish off the regiment in a nice manner. The mounted figures are priced at $6.00 per figure and the dismounts are priced at $4.00 per figure.

Confederate Cavalry Brigade (40 mounted/30 dismounted/ horseholders) - $650


Two CSA cavalry regiments with their dismounts and horseholder stands and brigade command stand.


The first CSA cavalry regiment in the lot.


A close up view of the second CSA cavalry regiment in the lot.


Two dismounted CSA regiments, with horseholders to the rear, and mounted brigade commander with flag.

As with the Union cavalry regiment, the two regiments shown in the pictures above include a nice variety of figures from different manufacturers. The mix of figures gives each regiment a certain degree of individuality and lends itself to a nice campaign appearance to the brigade. Each regiment of 20 mounted figures also has one horse holder stand and 15 dismounted figures. The mounted figures are based two per stand (2" squares) and the dismounts are based 3 figures per stand. It would be relatively easy to rebase the figures to match your existing collection or rules set, or leave them as is.

I don't know how you feel about ACW cavalry, but they were always the last thing that I wanted to paint when I was building my armies. This sale presents a wonderful opportunity to pick up some nicely painted, ready to game figures at a very reasonable price.

How To Purchase This Collection
If you are intersted in purchasing one, two or all three lots in this sale, then contact me at my yahoo e-mail address and we can work out the details. I accept cashiers checks from new clients, or your personal check (drawn on a USA bank) if we have done transactions in the past.

altefritz1740@yahoo.com

The total price for all three lots comes out to $1,150 if purchased individually, or $1,000 for all three lots of figures.

Perry ECW Figures For Sale


Perry ECW Ironsides with officer in the front. Montrose himself and another Jacobite commander supervise the artillery crew.


Perry ECW Montrose Highlander regiment with saker gun and crew.

SOLD! -- I have more unpainted Perry Scots horse, Moss Troopers and a regiment of Scots musketeers that I could custom paint for any interested party.

I am placing a small contingent of ECW Perry figures on the sale block. There is one 18-figure cuirassier regiment (single stands 1" by 2") and a 48- figure regiment of Montrose's Highlanders, plus a small artillery piece and crew and three mounted officers, including a Montrose personality figure. All figures are Perry ECW figures and are painted to a high standard.

The infantry figures are single mounted on 3/4" square metal bases so they are suitable for Warhammer ECW or 1644 or almost any other rules system. Many of the Highlanders have plaid blankets or cloaks or trews while the balance are wearing the Hodden Grey uniform. There are 12 pikemen and the rest are armed with muskets. I have some Body's Banners that I will include and these will finish off the look of the regiment very nicely.

I also have many boxes of unpainted Perry ECW Scots available for sale if anyone is interested. Let me know and I will provide an inventory of what I have and some deep discount prices on the unpainted lead. I recall that I have enough lead to paint another infantry regiment and several light cavalry and Moss Troopers for the Scots,

Perry ECW "Ironsides" cuirassiers.



Another view of the cuirassiers.

The price for the whole lot is $700.00 plus shipping and insurance cost. If you have an interest in these fine figures, then contact me at: altefritz1740@yahoo.com for more information.

I was going to sell my RSM SYW French army too, but after laying the whole thing out on a table to photograph, I realized that this is a one of a kind army that could never be replicated. I will post some eye candy pictures over the next several days (403 infantry and artillery and command figures plus 144 cavalry). Former RSM major domo, Dennis Smail, painted this entire army for me. Alas, Dennis has retired from painting so I would not be able to commission him to recreate this army. So it truly is a "one of a kind" and a true "keeper". That said, I would still entertain offers for the whole thing lock, stock and barrel.

Here are a few tasters of what I will be posting later this week:



RSM Grenadiers de France - Wow!


Old Glory Irish Regt. Bulkeley, RSM Grenadiers de France, and Front Rank Piemont Regt.


Here is an aeriel view from the Montgolfier Brothers' hot air balloon showing just part of the 16 infantry battalions and 8 artillery pieces. The cavalry will be photographed later in the week.

British SYW Army Sale


British SYW infantry brigade with supporting artillery. Figures include Elite Miniatures, Old Glory Highlanders and officers, and Sash & Sabre infantry and artillery crew. The regiments include the 12th (Napiers) - front row left, 51st (Brudenell's) - front right; 87th (Keith's) Highlanders - back row left, and the 8th (King's) Regiment - back row right, and converged grenadiers (not shown in above picture). Click and double click to enlarge the view.


The Hanoverian brigade consists of four regiments (24-figures each) of infantry, one regiment of freikorps (24 figures), one Hessian jager battalion (15 figures), two 6-pounders, Major General von Sporken, and Prince Ferdinand.



SYW British (left) and Hanoverian (right) brigades are posted for sale. Please double click this picture to see the enlarged view from the Montgolfier brothers' hot air balloon.

Continuing on with Der Alte Fritz's Famous Summer Sale, I am posting my version of His Britannic Majesty's Army in Western Germany under the command of Prince Ferdinand of Brunswick. This colorful army includes one British brigade of 3 line regiments of 30 figures (including a 6-figure grenadier stand per regiment), one 24-figure 87th Kieth's Highlanders, and one 24-figure converged grenadier battalion. The British brigade also includes a pair of 6-pound artillery pieces and two mounted commanders: Colonel Beckwith and Lt. General Waldegrave. The figures are roughly priced at $6.00 each for a total brigade price of $900.00.

The Hanoverian brigade consists of four battalions (each 24-figures) of infantry, one battalion (24 figures) of Hanoverian freikorps, 15 Hessian jagers, two 6-pound artillery pieces and crew, and Major General von Sporken. There is also a command stand for Prince Ferdinand that consists of three mounted figures on one stand. The figures are priced at around $6.00 each or $900.00 for the whole brigade.

I could probably be talked into selling the regiments individually or in pairs, at a price of $150 per regiment, but it would be a shame to break up this beautiful army into ten or twenty pieces.

If anyone is interested in purchasing the entire army in one fell swoop, then I can provide a discount of $300 and offer the entire army at $1,500.00. Postage and insurance are extra.

British Brigade (150 figures) - SOLD!
Hanoverian Brigde (144 figure) - SOLD!


51st (Brudenell's) Regiment of Foot. 30 figures from Sash & Sabre, hand painted flags. Includes one six figure stand of grenadiers that could be converged with the other grenadier stands. This was one of the Minden regiments.


12th (Napier's) Regiment of Foot. Elite Miniatues - 24 centre company figures and 6 grenadier figures. Hand painted flag - very nicely painted and based.


8th (King's) Regiment of Foot. Sash & Sabre figures include 24 centre company and 6 grenadiers. Hand painted flags, nicely based.


Four stands of converged British grenadiers (Maxwell's Grenadiers perhaps?). The brigade also has three other stands of grenadiers attached to the 12th, 8th and 51st regiments, so you could have as many as seven stands of converged grenadiers.


87th (Keith's) Highlanders and Lt. General Waldegrave. These are all Old Glory figures painted by Der Alte Fritz himself. There are 24 figures in the regiment (no grenadiers).


British artillery pieces and crew on the left and two Hanoverian 6-pounders on the right.

I will post pictures of the Hanoverian brigade within the next couple of days, but you can get an idea of what it looks like in the brigade and army pictures shown near the top of the page.

If you have an interest in purchasing either brigade, then contact me at my e-mail address of:

altefritz1740@yahoo.com

This is one of my favorite armies in the 18th century and it has been nicely recreated in miniature with well painted figures, colorful flags and textured basing to enhance the overall look. The detail work on the grenadiers is very good and the hand painted flags, particularly the Hanoverian flags, are amazing. The majority of the figures were painted by Leonard Albright of Lexington, KY, who also painted the flags. I painted the Highlanders, the two Front Rank Hanoverian regiments, the Front Rank Hanoverian freikorps and the Hanoverian artillery. Dennis Smail painted the Hessian Jagers.

Scruby Prussians - Old School Heritage For Sale


Classic Jack Scruby miniatures painted as Prussian Fusilier Regiment IR42 Wied. They are looking for a good home. Please contact me if you would like them to join your army at altefritz1740@yahoo.com for more information.

Summer Sale Update
All of the Austrians, the Bavarians and Prussian cavalry have all found new homes. I want to thank everyone for their purchases and look forward to shipping orders out this week and next week. In some cases, units are being rebased, others are being amalgamated and touched up with matching facing colors, and in several instances, I am painting extra figures to fill out the unit to the customer's specifications. I am starting my summer vacation next week, so taking care of orders should keep me fairly busy.

If you missed out on some of the offerings, I have plenty of unpainted RSM castings for Austrians, Prussians, British and French that I can paint to your specifications. I will also be posting a few more sales over the next several days. So stay tuned for more information.

Scruby Prussian Fusiliers for Sale: $245.00 (58 foot + 1 Mounted Officer)
There is one unit that is feeling a bit lonely, and that is the fine Scruby Prussian fusilier regiment IR42 Wied (58 foot and 1 mounted officer - a Spencer Smith one piece plastic figure). This is about as Old School as one can get. The unit is very attractively painted and at $4.00 per figure, represents very good value for the lucky owner of this battalion. The figures have not been based yet, so they could be set up on single stands or grouped together on multi-figure stands.

I purchased this fine looking regiment of Scruby Prussian Fusiliers painted as IR42 Wied, a few years ago and I have to say that the painter really did a nice job on the figures. There are 58 figures and one Spencer Smith plastic officer. If you are looking for a nice Old School battalion of well painted Scruby figures, then this would be an excellent addition to your collection. The figures are not mounted on bases, but rather have green bases for those of you who are interested in that Classic Wargame look as seen in Charge! These are priced to sell at about $4.00 per figure or $245.00 for the whole regiment. This would be perfect for BAR or Charge or you could base the figures into two 30 figure battalions to create a two battalion regiment in a 1:20 ratio.

Next in the sale que:
I have a very attractive SYW British and Hanoverian army that I will be offering for sale later this week. It consists of 4 Hanoverian regiments (2 Front Rank and 2 Sash & Sabre figures), 1 Keith's Highlanders (Old Glory), 3 other British regiments (1 Elite Miniatures and 3 Sash & Sabre), 1 Freitag's Jagers (Front Rank), 1 Hessian Jager (Old Glory?) and some Hanoverian artillery (2 x 6pdrs). I also have 2 British 3 pound guns and crew that I might keep for my own BAR army, but will consider offers. The painting quality is very good, so I am offering these battalions/regiments at $6.00 per figure. Stay tuned for pictures of this colorful army.

Bavarian Brigade For Sale


RSM Bavarian Brigade for the Seven Years War. Five infantry battalions, two 6-pound artillery and crew, and one mounted general. That's 110 figures in the whole brigade for sale at bargain price of $4.00 per figure or $440.00 for the whole brigade + shipping. Click pix to enlarge the view.

The sale of RSM Austrians is nearly over, I only have the six battalions of figures in advancing poses left for sale. If you have an interest in any of these Austrian battalions, you should know that I am dropping the price to $3.00 per figure for 30 figure battalions, or $90.00 per battalion. If they haven't been sold by the end of August, then I will rebase the figures for BAR and add three 60 figure battalions to my own Austrian army.

Bavarian Brigade Sale: (110 figures) SOLD!


Overhead view of the entire Bavarian Brigade of RSM figures.

The Bavarians are next in the sale que, and this fine brigade was painted by Bill Biles using RSM Austrians as stand ins for the Bavarians. The brigade consists of five battalions: Lieb Regiment, Minucci, Clemens, Morowitzski, and Kurprinz. There are also two 6-pounders with three crew each and one mounted brigade general. Each battalion is mounted four figures per stand with five stands per regiment. The flags were hand painted and photocopied. The standard of painting is fairly good, although not done with the two or three tone painting style that seems popular today.

Dixon Prussian Dragoon Regt. DR3 Meinicke (20 figures) SOLD!

I am offering a nice Prussian dragoon regiment, comprised of that little known range of Dixon figures, painted as DR3 von Meinicke. The pink or rose facings are very unusual and add some nice color to the tabletop. It is a 20 figure regiment based on 2" square stands and includes a hand painted flag. Bill Biles painted the regiment for me back in the 1990s. The figures are a little larger than the RSM figures, but I think that they look just fine along side RSM cavalry, in terms of overall size and proportions. These are priced for a quick sale at $6.00 per figure

RSM Cuirassiers

I have two regiments of Prussian cuirassiers using RSM figures for sale. The CR12 Kyau regiment was painted by Bill Biles for my collection and is priced at$7.00 per figure or $140.00 for the unit. The second regiment is CR10 Gensdarmes painted by Dean West at $8.00 per figure or $160.00 for the regiment. The Gensdarmes are on single stands and I could rebase them to suit your particular needs.

altefritz1740@yahoo.com

I will accept your personal check as payment and send the figures upon receipt of your payment.

I will be offering more RSM Prussian units in August 2010 as well as some very nice Perry ECW cuirassiers and Montrose' Scots infantry.

RSM Austrians Re-based


RSM Austrian Regiment "Kollowrat" with their new bases.

The great RSM Summer Sale has been fairly successful so far, with 8 battalions preparing for transfer to new ownership. One of the buyers had me rebase his new battalions on 2-inch square bases for "Might & Reason" rules, but these bases could just as easily be used for Black Powder, BAR, Age of Reason or even Rusty's Rules. I thought that I would show you the before and after views of the battalions, i.e. with the old form of basing versus my new method of basing figures. The following two pictures depict the Austrian regiment Neipperg in its "before" and "after" method of basing. The figures are RSM figures painted by Bill Biles, circa 1994.


The Austrian Regiment Neipperg in the "before" basing method...


Austrian Regiment Neipperg (front left) in the "after" method of basing.

Please click on the pictures to see an enlarged view of the figures.

The old system called for gluing the figures onto plastic bases and then covering the bases with some spackling compound, then dipped in flock. It was cutting edge in 1994, but looks rather tired and out of date by today's standards. The painting is average because we largely did not shade and highlight our figures back then. Indeed, my own painting style has improved and changed over the years.

I had to rebase all of the battalions, so I stuck them in the freezer for about an hour, in order to loosen the bond of the superglue that I had originally used to glue the figures to their bases. In most cases, the figures popped right off the plastic base, but it was a bit of a chore to cut and hack up the old bases. Once the figures were loose, I then took an exacto knife and scraped off all of the remaining spackle compound that was still on the figure's base, so that they would be nice and clean for their new bases. Finally, I had some nice Litko bases, sized at 2-inch square, on hand and I used these for my customer's new basing. I highly recommend the Litko bases. They are inexpensive, but they look very nice and have clean cuts so that every base matches up snug and true to the next one.


The righthand stand of figures was painted the other day in order to fill out the regiment with "march attack" poses. I tried to copy the style of the other figures, that I painted back in the 1990s. See if you can tell the difference.

The client asked for six battalions all in the march attack pose, which I was able to do, save for one unit (Kolowrat) that was short about 9 march attack figures. So luckily, I had some RSM Austrians already primed and ready to paint, so I was able to paint up the extra figures very quickly. RSM figures paint up fast and easy, which is one of the reasons I like them. Then I decided that having only one flag per battalion did not look right. So I decided to reflag the units with brand new GMB Designs flags that I had on hand. This meant that I also had to paint up six new flag bearers so that each battalion would have two, instead of one. In most cases, I clipped off the old flag and replaced with a new GMB flag, while the new flag bearers were painted from scratch.

I think that you will agree that the end result justifies the extra effort. The new basing really brings the figures to life and the two new flags adds a spiffy touch to the unit. This is an example of the type of service that you get when you buy figures from Der Alte Fritz.

Additional RSM Units for Sale

Going forward, I have decided to sell the rest of the Austrian infantry and cavalry as single battalions or single cavalry regiments, in order to clear out the remaining units. They are priced to sell at a very reasonable $4.00 per infantry figure and $5.00 per cavalry figure, unless otherwise noted.

RSM Austrians for sale:
1. Austrian regiment Gaisruck/advancing/violet facings (30 figures) -- $120.00
2. Deutschmeister regiment/advancing/dark blue facings (30 figures) -- $120.00
3. Luzan regiment / advancing/green facings (30 figures) -- $120.00
4. Los Rios regiment/ advancing/ green facings (30 figures) -- $120.00
5. de Ligne Dragoons (RSM) / green coats & red facings (20 figures) -- $100.00
6. Erzherzog Ferdinand Cuirassiers (RSM) (20 figures) -- $100.00
7. Schmerzing Cuirassiers (RSM) (20 figures) -- $100.00

Old Glory Austrians for sale
8. de Ligne Dragoon (20 figures) better paint job @$6.00/figure = $120.00
9. Croats (24 figures) better paint job @ $5.00 /figure = $120.00

For those who are building larger units, the two green facing musketeer regiments could be merged into one big 60 figure unit. Likewise, the two RSM cuirassier units could be merged into one 40 figure unit.

I will update the basing on any figures purchased and reflag the units with GMB Design flags, if that suits your fancy.

New Bespoke RSM Austrian Units
I also have 7 bags of 36 figures of Austrian musketeers in "march attack" pose that I am willing to paint, flag and base for anyone interested in brand new units. These will be painted with two-tone shading/highlight colors and be flagged and based to your specifications. Since these will be painted to order, the price per figure for the new RSM battalions will be higher than the old wargame units that are on sale right now. The new figures will be attractively priced at $6.00 per figure (so you get the figure and a nifty Alte Fritz paint job for $6.00).

Interested buyers should contact me at my yahoo mail box:

altefritz1740@yahoo.com

and we can make arrangements to deliver your order in a timely manner.

RSM Austrian Summer Sale


Lot #1 Austrian Brigade: 120 infantry, 40 cuirassiers, 4 artillery pieces with crew, and 2 mounted generals. Price: $750 plus shipping and packing costs.

[click all pix to enlarge the view. double click to double the size of the picture]

I have decided to sell off all of my RSM SYW Austrian and Prussian armies. This is a rather emotional thing for me, since some of these figures were among my first ever wargame units and I have fought a lot of enjoyable battles with them over the years. I need to reinvest the proceeds into other projects, mainly some needed home repairs. Eventually, I will replace these with my Minden armies, but after giving it some long thought, I decided that I do not need to have three different SYW armies.

I have grouped the Austrians into three lots of figures. All three lots have a nice variety of infanty, cavalry and some artillery plus mounted generals. So you can start with a nice brigade of Austrians from any of these lots. I have also grouped the figures by facing colors for those of you who might be interested in combining the battalions into "Big Battalions" for BAR or Charge rules. As is, they are 30 figure infantry units and 20 figure cavalry units that would be suitable for a number of rules such as Black Powder, Age of Reason, and Rustys Rules, to name a few.

The Austrians are priced reasonably at about $4.00 per infantry and artillery figure and $5.00 per cavalry figure. The painting style is "average" with no shading or 2 or 3 tone painting. In some cases, the cross belts have been lined. All figures have eyes that are done very nicely and avoid the bug-eyed look. My painting style and abilities have changed considerably since I first painted these figures, so I am not pricing them at my current market rates for painted figures. However, they look nice and will give you a nice brigade or two that is ready for battle.
Lot #1: $750 plus shipping

The first group includes two battalions in red facings and two battalions in blue facings. You could easily group them into two 60 figure units for BAR or Charge, or keep them as 30 figure units. There are six figures per stand and five stands per battalion. One of the stands in each battalion is a grenadier stand, so you could detach and converge the four grenadier stands to create one 24 figure grenadier battalion and have four 24 figure musketeer battalions.


Lot #1 Austrian infantry with blue facings in march attack pose. You could combine these two battalions into one BAR-sized 60-figure unit.


Lot #1 artillery: 6-pounder (left) and 12-pounder (right).


Lot #1 cavalry: two regiments of cuirassiers. They look so similar that they could be combined into one large 40 figure regiment.

Lot #2: $730 plus shipping


Lot #2: 20 hussars, 20 light dragoons, 120 infantry, 3 cannon with crew, and 2 mounted officers: $730 plus shipping.


Lot #2 infantry closeup: two battalions with violet facings and artillery crew and general.


Lot #2 cavalry -- 20 Baranyai Hussars and 20 de Ligne Dragoons.

The second lot of Austrian figures contains two battalions of 30 figures in green facings and all in the advancing pose. Thus they could be converged into one 60 figure battalion for BAR or Charge rules. These are the Los Rios and the Luzan regiments.

There are also two battalions in violet facings: Gaisruck and Sachsen Gotha, so again, they could be converged into one battalion.

The Lot#2 cavalry include the first two cavalry regiments that I ever painted: the Baranyai Hussars and the de Ligne Dragoons.

Lot #3: $850 plus shipping

Lot #3: five battalions of musketeers, one btn of Croats, 20 Old Glory dragoons and an officer stand with two figures.

The third lot of figures contains figures that may or may not match up well for larger units. There are three battalions in red facings that could be grouped together to get one super large 90 figure battalion or two 45 figure battalions or three 30 figure battalions. Then I have added two other blue facing battalions with a mix of marching and advancing figures.

The lot also includes one Old Glory Austrian dragoon regiment (de Ligne) and one Old Glory Croat battalion of 24 figures. The Croats were painted by Leonard Albright of Lexington, KY and I painted the dragoons in my "middle period" so they have some shading and blacklining to them and are painted to a higher standard than my other figures in these three lots.

Old Glory Croats. These are very nicely painted by Leonard Albright.

How to buy these figures
If you are interested in any of these lots of figures, then send me an e-mail with your interest to my box at:

altefritz1740@yahoo.com (corrected e-mail address)

I will be happy to work with you in terms of getting the figures shipped in a timely manner, or if you would like to have the figures rebased in a more modern style, we could work something out for the extra time spent on the rebasing. They could be rebased with static grass and gravel with multiple figures on each base, or as single based figures.
