General Halkett looks over teh field - lovely Perry Miniatures |
As part of the constant growth of my Napoleonic collection, late last year I finally based these two figures in order to provide some brigade commanders for my Anglo-Dutch army at Waterloo.
One of the beautiful character figure packs that the very talented Perry twins have designed include a number of divisional and brigade generals. In this case, I have based up the reasonably talented General Hugh Halkett who commanded the 3rd Hanoverian brigade in Clinton's 2nd Division at Waterloo.

Brunswick Mounted Colonel figure painted as a Hanoverian ADC |

The command stand works well with the added field puddles in my opinion |
Halkett also served in the Peninsular and saw some action with the independant KGL under Von Alten.

Really need to straighten up that bloody sword! |
A few more command stands to post in the coming week
Very nice - love the wet-look sooooo Waterloo!

Thank you Chris. The base came together well and I would like to try basing a full cavalry regiment in the same style.
DeleteGreat looking command stand, the base is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteCheers Phil - it was reasonably simple in the end however I did have yo cover the base when I sprayed a bit if Dulcote on the figures afterwards!
DeleteLovely effect and just the sort of thing I would applaud. Keep up the fine work mate.
ReplyDeleteWell Greg as you know...I do like applause! Thanks mate.
DeleteExcellent command stand!
ReplyDeleteCheers Rodger - I can see him having some fun keeping those Hanoverians in line.
DeleteLovely painting and the basing is great, too!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Peter.
DeleteVery dashing, as ever lovely painting and basing Carlo, great additions!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Paul. The DPS boys did a wonderful job on painting these particular fellows that's for sure - however the basing is all mine.
DeleteGreat addition! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you very much Mark.
DeleteCute as a button Carlo ... quite a few buttons with a side dish of braiding actually! 8O)
ReplyDeleteSimple yet effective ... ... ... and I'm glad to hear that it's not that the horses have upset innards!! 8O))
Salute

Thank you very much Peter. The base ended up looking reasonably effective I must say. No, the fodder was not too green that's for sure!
