Bonjour Carlo,


Yes I'm very pleased to own some Calpe figures which are probably my favourite figures altogether and certainly my favourite Prussians!

Sadly I don't have a blog. Well I tried setting up a French one and gave up but perhaps I'll try and resurrect and/or replace it.

Presently just finishing 4 more Prussian Calpe Horse Artillery Limbers to add to the 8 I've already done.

I must have too much time on my hands as having now realised that each infantry "brigade" of 3 battalions or so should have a battery of 6 pounders/howitzers, I've more or less decided to order another 16 from Peter to add to the 12 I've already got! After all they do look splendid, especially with the limber riders that Peter makes but doesn't advertise!

Now that should keep me busy for a while.

Meanwhile, you've clearly got good eyesight  to have spotted my Spanish lurking on the shelves. I just had 4 battalions painted recently plus 2 of Portuguese Cacadores. I know the Spanish are not the best army to own but they do allow you to do the Peninsular GDB scenarios and they're no worse than Landwehr really!

Cheers,

Paul
