Hello,

OG make 15mm SYW Hanoverians, but no pictures on the website. I'm not aware anyone makes 15mm Hessians and Brunswickers. What figures would be the best (Prussians?), and from which manufacturer ?

My Hessians are from the 15mm OG Prussian range and same would serve well as Brunswickers. Check Kronoskaf.com for some minor differences, cuffs, lapels, especially for cavalry (shabraques, etc.).

OG Prussians should be close enough to use as Brunswick and Hessian forces.

Especially with 15mm figures.

Does it matter in 15mm?

Cardinal Hawkwood25 Jul 2009 3:28 a.m. PST

hurumph what of question is that ? it matters to me..

Can you SEE the difference in 15mm? THAT is my question.

Cardinal Hawkwood25 Jul 2009 7:02 a.m. PST

I would say yes..

Thanks for the rapid reaction. Wouldn't other makers' Prussians do (provided they have Swedish cuffs …)?

Oh, and another question: would you do them Prussian blue, or a lighter shade (I'm tempted … so they don't look too Prussian, but maybe they have to)
