Some pictures of my Füsiliere 2tes Ostpreußisches Infanterie Regiment (IR 3) & Major von Klüx:

Minis are Calpe with the Exception of Major von Klüx who comes from Perry.

Well done! I like the muddy gaiters in this last picture. How did you achieve that last bit of detail? Did you just dry brush on some mud coloured brown?

That just seems too easy a thing to do to make it look that nice.

Thank you guys!

@Matthew: It is quiet simple, but I have been asked this quiet a lot, so I wrote a tutorial earlier this year:

Well done, Burkhard. The shadows of the muskets and bayonets make the photos even more interesting. Thanks for the link to your tutorial.

Burkhard,
Excellent workmanship!! I like that muddy/dirty apperence that you give to your troops. I'm unsure it would work on 15/18mm and might look more like I spilled coffee on them. I does come out very good in 28mm though.

Thank you guys and no problem posting the URL for the tutorial… That is what it is for! I agree with you John, I doubt it would work in 15mm, but with the larger scales it does the trick!

Great looking Prussians, as always with your skill. Best, Dean

Nicely painted figures and a very lively looking unit with the various poses and mud.
