Crimean War British Command Stand



While I was plodding through the Roosian Rifle Battalion skirmisher figures I was also daubing paint on four pieces for the British Army Command Stand. The stand features the mounted figures of Lord Raglan and General Cathcart with a General on foot {about to sign off the order which will 'loose the Light Brigade'}, and an ADC from the 'Cherubims'. The figures are from Great War Miniatures via North Star and the bases are from Warbases as ever ~
Such hobby time as I have found lately has been largely devoted to the rebasing of the Roosian infantry from the Prodigal Foundry Collection. I hope to show some photos of these in the coming days, so stay tuned please!

    1. Many thanks Andy. The Roosians are all done, for now, so keep an eye out next week for them.

  5. Another lovely command stand there David, with the red uniformed ADC (or whatever he is) making a nice contrast to the blue/black uniforms of his superiors.

  6. A wonderful looking command stand there, with equally fine looking basing to show it off! There seems to be no sign of the old dog slowing down yet...
