Perry Napoleonic Russian Commanders

Here are the last figures from the Perry "Brigade Deal" of Russians.

To fill up the 50mm round Litko bases, I added a couple of spare grenadiers, as well as a French casualty from their French Infantry set.
 
The mounted commanders are all cast as one piece - rider and horse.
Their lineage from Foundry sculpts by the Perrys is visible - particularly the one in the 1809 shako.
These were nice to paint up using block painting followed by Minwax staining and then highlights.
Good to have these done as my order of reinforcements (more cannon and some skirmishing Jaeger) are en route.

Thanks for stopping by and wishing you all the best.

    Great work Dean, these are really nice. That green on the coats looks fabulous. I admire your dapple grey horses too. I sometimes plan to do dappled horses but I always switch for a simpler colour when I get the paints out! I should really give it a try and see if I can get the excellent results that you do.
    Best wishes,
    Jason

      Thank you very much for the compliment, Jason. I probably could've softened the grey a bit, but got lazy. I try to group 4 - 5 irregular sized dots for the dappling pattern. Pretty simple process, once you get into it. Warmest regards, Dean

    Command bases look amazing. Block painting for Napoleonic is a key solution. A large number of figures in a relatively short period of time.

    They look gorgeous - really great! Do you know, up to which command level the shako was worn by the Russians? Your miniatures look like Brigade Generals at the highest? Wore corps and army commanders always bicorne or sometimes field cap like famously Kutusow?
