Ancient Carthaginian Army
Painted and mounted these for DBM and sold them on Ebay. The pictures didn't come out very good and don't do them justice especially the Carthage Citizen Infantry.

My Seven Years War French Army
Oddly enough I didn't take a 'whole army' on display picture. Rather surprised by that, something else I'll have to up date when I find the time.
Again all Heroics and Ros. All flags are hand painted.
Five Regiments of French Infantry. Beauvoisis, Dauphin, Piedmont, Royal Artillerie, and Royal Montbazon.
Another view and a close up.
Four Regiments of Swiss Infantry. Castellas, Diesbach, Planta and Waldner.
Four German Infantry Regiments: Alsace, Anhalt, Royal Bavarie, and Royal Seudois.
Volontaries d'Alsace, a French light infantry regiment.
Two Grenadier Battalions with Piedmont Regiment attached, the "Elite Brigade" of the army.
Marshal Victor, the Duc de Broglie and Prince de Lorraine. That's the Broglie family crest I painted on the standard (at least I'm pretty sure it is).
French Artillery
French Light Cavalry. Two Regiments of Dragoons and one of Hussars. I know the French Dragons were wearing hats and instead of the caps. But painting them up as the War of Spanish Succession version gives the army a little more variety and style.
95% of the French cavalry in my army is two small regiments banded together (again based on the AoR rules). But the Apchon Dragoons regiment here is larger, a full regiment on its own. The other dragoon unit is Du Roy and La Frenonaye Dragoons. The hussars are Bercheny and Royal Nassau.
Close ups.
French Line Cavalry and a 6 stand Gendarme unit.

Eldar Dreadnought
And old (circa 1990) metal Eldar Dreadnought for Warhammer 40k. Painting and repainting as we've been getting back into 40k the past few months.
Seven Years War Prussian
These Prussians were painted for my friend as the starting point for our grand 18th Century project. Hoping to do the "Sport of Kings" campaign from the Warfare in the Age of Reason rules.
All figures are Heroics and Ros, my 6mm (true 6mm!) favorites. I know Baccus and Adler are all the rage these days, but when playing 6mm you will NEVER notice the more detailed the lightly larger / robust figures have over H&R. Plus I still think Baccus cavalry way oversized the rider and headgear compared to the relative size of the horse (they're big animals).
All flags are hand painted.
The whole army so far, the is more to come for the Prussians.
Remember you can click on all pictures for larger view.
Prussian Hussars
Zeithen's 2nd Hussars. I know that Frederick order the Hussars to return their standards in 1743, but it does add a little extra flavor to the unit. Plus the AoR reason rules allow the chance for the enemy to capture standards in a successful melee.

Prussian Cuirassier. The 8th, 10th, and 11th Regiments.
Prussian Dragoons. I've forgotten which regiments. I update the post once I find out.
Some Prussian Artillery.
Some Prussian Grenadier Battalions and the 6th Garde Regiment.
Close up of some grenadiers.
Five Fusilier Regiments. Prince Heinrich, Munchow, Kursell, Kreyten, and Wurttemburg Regiments. I always try to pick and paint the regiments that fought in numerous battles.
Close up of Wurttemburg and Munchow Regiments.
Five Musketeer Regiments. Braunschweig, Dohna, Forcade, Kalckstein, and a mystery one
because I forgot to write it down in my painting records, so again I'll have to check next time we play.
Close up view.
So late...
Very, very...VERY belated update. So the next several posts show most of the work I did in the past year and half, sadly its nowhere near as much as I would have like. But I'm feeling really inspired these days as we've been gaming more and more so hopefully my production level will increase dramatically.
