SYW range.

Evening all, thinking of doing some SYW British and Hanovarian. Are there drummers etc in all the packs and what difference is there between the British and Hanovarians.
      Cheers Al

Can't speak for the Hanoverians but the British come with drummers, sergeants and officers (pipers or flutes in Highland / Grenadier)

Also check the 'generic standard bearer pack' - much better than the ones in the general packs IMO

They are terrific Zippee.

Thanks for that Zippee, those are really nice. I think I will order a few packs.    Do the Horse Grenadeirs have mitre caps as I want to do the 2nd Dragoons.
                                        Cheers Al.

Sorry no idea haven't seen them

[ali657]

[Matt J]

yes, they do

[ali657]

Thanks Matt, have you painted any ?. Would really like to see those if you have.
        Cheers Al.

[Matt J]

alas not yet (not unlike a lot of other things  )

nice sculpts though, shame only one pose.

[ali657]

Shame I was looking for some inspiration and tips on how to tackle the mitre caps.

A little white Hanoverian horse on the red cartouche over the forehead? I applaud your ambition, sir.

It is doable - albeit stylised

Found a couple I'd already started. I'll paint one up next couple of days, I originally intended them to be Scot's Greys

[ali657]

That's great, I look forward to seeing this.
   Cheers Al.
