Re-inforcements are coming! - Hungarians!

Joseph Esterhazy regiment (I.R 37) - raised during the War of Austrian Succession, it participated in the Seven Years War in the battles at Prag, Breslau, Hochkirch and Liegnitz. I chosen them mainly because of the nice uniform. ... I also started the  Erzherzog Carl(I.R. 2) ... indeed also because of the nice colour combination. As most miniature provider sell Austrins SYW infantry with PomPoms -  I was naturally going with the 1762 uniform versions.

7th Showcase - The Russian Seven Years War Army

These are my six brigades of Russians on the SYW. The Miniatures are Mostly Crusader miniatures, some Foundry and the flags are all "self-made" from Kronoskaf.

I opted for the Winter uniform for all, out of fashionable personal preference and because all had the same - only the colour base defines then a regiment, and one can experiment with different regt. sizes ... as some were notoriously under their nominal strength ...

The whole lot

The Gruzinskiy Hussars 

The Garde a Cheval, look like Dargoons, but they weren't

The  Smolensk, Schlüsselburg and Moskov regiments

the Artillery brigade (6pdrs) and some Pandurs

... and the 3pdrs and some Pandurs

and some howitzers

the St. Petersburg, Novgorod and Ingermanlandskiy regiments

the 1st Grenadier regiment

the Leib Guard regiment Preobrazheskiy

the 2nd Grenadier regiment ...

The Leib Guard Curassiers

6th Showcase: Franco Prussian War 10mm

... some paints arrived  ... some bases and miniatures still in mail ...

I'm happy to announce that I finished the French side of my FPW project finally (after Y.E.A.R.S. of abandonment) the complete Bourbaki's Guard corps vs the Prussian v. Alvensleven's III corps plus the infamous v. Rheinbaben Cavalry corps (5th Division)! (Where ever I found, I used the parade uniforms for the more veteran units, especially in the Prussian side to make the  whole lot not too uniform) :)

Terrain wise, I‘ve started on (smaller scaled) villages and will continue with woods and orchards and maybe another tinywargames mat ... or maybe later some French infantry re-inforcements ... who knows... but for now the forces seem to be an alright and interesting match while within the historic bounds ...
