Quebec 1759

[Matt J]

I have a lot of interest in the FIW and past couple of years started to collect the models required for the Quebec campaign. I now have enough models for British forces for the Plains of Abraham and some of the French. I'm working on ratio of roughly 1/10. So far the Light infantry have been finished as have Rogers Rangers and commander of the light infantry lieutenant-colonel William Howe. Two battalions also finished - 15th Amherst's foot and 47th Lascelle's foot.
All sanded tonight so hopefully be finished by the weekend. II and III battalions of the Royal Americans and 2 light field guns being prepped next.

For anyone who hasn't dipped into the Pendraken SYW range the sculpts are the proverbial dogs bollocks. Also Kronoskaf.com is an invaluable resource for anyone researching uniforms for this period.

Gah! So tempted by this period, but I know nothing about it.

I bet these look amazing. Looking forward to seeing these.

Amazing work Matt.

These look really smart, not sure if I like the command group or 47th foot more.

SYW is a belting period Matt and you have certainly done it justice. For anyone interested try one of the Duffy books on either the Prussians or the Austrians and you'll find plenty to get you started. It is also one of the Pendraken ranges that is virtually fully covered, including baggage wagons, personalities, different versions of canoes for FIW, civilians, engineers, etc.
