My second Silesian Landwehr Battalion - finished unit

I had painted one battalion of Silesian Landwehr earlier this year. Normally Landwehr regiments had 3 or 4 battalions and Landwehr troops made up the bulk of any Prussian Army between 1813 and 14. Therefore I need to paint many of them.

Silesian Landwehr Battalion - finished unit

The Landwehr made up the bulk of the Prussian troops after 1813. Many infantry and cavalry regiments were raised. The biggest proportion of Landwehr came from the Silesian part of the Kingdom of Prussia, they had yellow facings on their uniform.

1st Battalion of the 2nd West Prussian Infantry Regiment - finished unit

After finishing the second battalion of this regiment I could manage to paint the first one. As I described it in my previous post: the Prussian line infantry regiments after 1808 had three battalions, two of them were line infantry and the third one was a fusilier (light infantry) battalion. The fusiliers will be completed later for my 2nd West Prussians, I have bought the figures already.

Italian Allied Light Cavalry - finished unit

 The lack of cavalry was a constant problem for my Republican Roman army during the games. Last year I managed to paint some Roman Equites medium cavalry, but according to the army list it is compulsory to have light cavalry too. So the light cavalry was always installed by an another player. But this time I could paint my very own light cavalry contingent.

Ottoman tüfekçi - finished unit

For several years my Ottoman Army project was on hold and no additional units were painted. However in the last few months I decided to improve my Ottomans. At first two units of tüfekçi were finished.
