Cuirassiers, Dragoons and Lancers charge the square from three sides......

The action swirls around and around as the French try to break the formation........

In the end, the British line holds..........

Good stuff George, I really enjoyed it. So what figures are in this lot?

 

[mestell]

I am really liking these "Nappie" dios of yours George. Great looking!

Thanks for the feedback, it's about time I got off of my backside and rolled out the Napoleonics. These are all 20mm in scale, the manufacturers are Hinton Hunt, Newline Designs and Kennington Miniatures, two of which are no longer in business..........

George, how did I manage to miss this one?? Sorry .

These really nice displays you make with your collection make me miss my wargaming days.

I know that you must have spent ages setting these up but keep them coming

Thanks Jeff, I am getting some allied figures done; can anyone say the full blown French cavalry charge once I get more troops done?

Thanks Rod, Mr king of the Eastern Front diorama..........

If I was A Royal Artilleryman, I'd get into a square quick! Nice figures and photos! What a great way to teach Napoleonic tactics!

 

[Warrior]

Thanks Scott, glad you appreciate my work.........

Very very nice George!!! Lots of time and effort would have gone into his. Keep them coming

P/S could we also have a couple of close ups???

 

[Warrior]

Sure, I can do some close ups for you in my next project. Thanks for the positive feedback.

I am planning out a number of large (huge actually) dioramas, including the French Cavalry Charge, the French 1st Corps attack, the British cavalry charge, etc, etc..........

Thanks for posting these great images.

I think I see a gentleman in a top hat with a good old brolly in the command group in the centre of the square.

Sir Thomas Picton I presume.....

Nicely painted colours with fine detail too.

Look forward to your future dioramas.

 

[Warrior]

Thanks Glossman, I appreciate the feedback; Sir Thomas Picton it is. Look for more images coming soon............

Great work...You should do Hougoumont if you have the Buildings.
once again fantastic work Warrior.

You are most welcome, Warrior.

I hope you will post some images of the Royal Scots Greys charging in the Battle of Waterloo as in Lady Butler's famous painting.

Thusfar, I have not seen a post with images of this cavalry charge on the forum.

It is likely that I may have missed this diorama ie "Scotland the Brave".

Best, Raymond.

That is great news George; these are quite fun and certainly demonstrate one advantage of the 20mm scale. Just imagine doing this with First Legion figures, now that would be some budget.
