A new 'Black' Army unit


I have been aware that a lot of my efforts of late have been going into painting up units of 'Red' Army, so I made a decision to try and catch up with 'Black' Army .


This is Infantry Regt. 83. I decided to paint them in the Summer uniform with white trouser to distinguish them from the previous Infantry unit.


It has take a few weeks to get them done as I ran out of casting metal , however a lucky find on EBay has supplied me with a reasonably priced stock and I got them finished last night , the varnish is still wet on 3 of the figures !. I have also started on some Gunners for 'Black' Army and have got a Prince August Lancer mold set cheap on EBay so hopefully 'Black' Army will not be as badly outnumbered in the future. Was thinking of getting a game with these figure outside but the British summer seems to have turned very Autumnal this week so it might have to be indoors.
