10mm British Army for the Battle of Cowpens - Complete

 Thanks to the summer holidays I've had more time to finish this army representing the British at Cowpens at a roughly 1:8 ratio.

Here are the newly finished groups of units.

The army all together - I'm happy enough with them and can move on to the Americans opposing them shortly.

10mm AWI update - 71st, Legion, and 3pdr

In the first update of my 10mm project I have now added;

The first 3 bases of the 71st Fraser's Highlanders

A 3-Pounder Cannon

 

 
 The 71st join the 7th Royal Fusiliers and some Legion Cavalry who have not been photographed on their own in this group shot.

10mm AWI - 7th Royal Fusiliers

I have started painting up 10mm figures for the battle of Cowpens (1781) at a figure ratio of roughly 1:8.

I have painted 24 figures to represent the approximately 180 soldiers of the 7th Royal Fusiliers.

 

The figures are based on 40x25mm bases using the rear 5mm for labels.
I think this gives a good looseness of files suitable for the battles on the North American continent.

6mm Battle of Hastings

Last year I painted up troops for the Battle of Hastings.

They were used with my, then year 10, GCSE students to help them remember the armies and the battle for their history GCSE on a very simple self written grid based ruleset.

The class was VERY engaged, with each student controlling ~2 units each, determined to win the battle for their team.

10mm WW2 figures - British, German, American and Italian

Over the past few years I've been slowly gathering a collection of 10mm WW2 platoons plus supports to play Chain of Command on a pinboard, a very economical and space saving meaasure.

I'm happy with the look.
