Artillery awaiting limbers

I  guess most artillery would have had 6 horse teams so I will have to raid my spare french figures to make up for the deficit in horses. All work for the coming months.

Stone House by Italeri

Today I  took a  break from figures and built up this little house. I have a dearth of houses and general terrain for my imaginary wargames table so today's effort goes some way to fixing this. It was a great little day project in between my work on the Austrian artillery. Good times!

Austrian Artillery

A nice change from painting infantry. The figures aren't as goog as the Hat French but still quite ok. I  might have to do some chopping to get the riders to look more natural.

Mixed Austrians

The "German" battalions are finished and now I am awaiting the start of the Landwehr/Grenadiers and Grenzers. Another 15-20 battalions methinks. In the meantime I am going to start on my baggage wagons and cavalry artillery.

Been a bit sick and busy lately. Anyway here is a snap of the continuing project.

One more shot

Austrian Artillery

As the title suggests I now have an extra arm to my Austrian Army. The brown of the uniforms is passable and on the table will look ok. I really like the cannons though. The Austrians had a lighter caliber than tbe French and I think the models reflect this well. My next part of the project will be the 1809 Austrian "German " infantry.
