Black Hussar Miniatures - Rude Highlanders

A couple more Black Hussar minis - this time a bit more comical in nature. I plan to use them as casualty markers.
The cheeky guy is with the 79th Cameron and the grinning one with the 42nd Black Watch.
Looks like I forgot to paint a few things - the buttons on the leggings...
And some of the green in the center of the dicing on the bonnet.
On the gaming front, I'm hosting a Black Powder game next Saturday.
Thanks for stopping by, and best wishes to you all.

    Brilliant Dean. Typical Jocks, when faced with disaster show defiance and humour with it; and as one I can say that.

    The brushwork on the tartan is superb as well.

    Cheers, Ross

      Thank you very much, Ross. The tartans are actually fun to do - when not in masses! :) Kind regards, Dean

    Very nicely done. Of course this does be the question on labeling - isn't the term "Rude Highlanders" a bit redundant - are there other kinds?

    :)

      Thank you kindly, Iain. The game scenario will be similar to the one used last month. Only this time with more units on a slightly larger table. Best, Dean

    Outstanding. Now, does any manufacturer make Old Guard running away (Peter Pig does them in 15mm...)? ;)

    Wonderful brush work on some great miniatures. The tartan especially is the bees knees.

    Well I suppose we now know the answer to one of the questions posed in "For Whom the Bell Tolls"... what does a Scotsman wear under his kilt? :-)

    Good luck with the BP game, Dean!
