Seven Years War - Prussian Army - tender beginnings WIP

After finishing the IR 42nd Fusilier regiment, I needed to paint cavalry and choose the Nr 5 v. Ruesch, the famous "Black Hussars" with the skull and crossed bones on the front of the cap and all in black - wonderful! At the same time I did some light artillery (the guns were ordered as medium (foundry) and are a bit small for my taste, but I‘m happy to use them as light). And finally the IR 2nd Musketeer regiment von Kanitz, no particular reason either other than I needed to paint a box standard Prussian regiment after the cavalry. On the death hussars I mistakenly switched the musicians and the flag bearers pelisse ... well, maybe I'll change it later or leave it as character piece in there ...

  2. It looks like we will not need proxies on Prussians in our future games. That sounds very good. Excellent job!
