"Boki Quiz.. who will recognize the uniform? " Topic

Bingo! You win.

WOOHOO!!!

That one was easy as you'd posted the same picture on your "Borodino 1812 Czarist Generals" page of your website.

Cheater! :-)

Lol

Fifth quiz..

First hint – they are officers. What Army?

I have no idea who but they look great, Russian for early Napoleonic period?

lovely sculpting and fast progress

Early period is right, russians not, Paul.

Second hint, they are missing officers for existing AB line.

Given that, and since the early Austrian command doesn't have named officers, I'll guess 1806 Prussians.
Phil

These are not named officers (personalities) and not Prussians.
Third and last hint – these are infantry officers (not generals) and von Winterfeldt commissioned them as battalion commanders.

As they are early and to compliment an AB range, are they Revolutionary period Austrian then?

Yes, you win again! :)

Excellent!! I'll buy a few of those from you as soon as they are ready.

You win two quiz, you get two additional free figures, when order. Kutuzov and one ot this officers. And another one, as being Old Guard (one of my first customers).

I will need a few too ;-))

Thanks Sho.

I just wish I'd known you were doing these as I just used a Blue Moon mounted officer in my O'Donel's Frei-corps battalion, and just completed the command stand this morning. I may try and pop him off his horse.

Any chance you could maybe do an early Murat suitable for Marengo at some point?

Colin

a good French staff and generals for the Revolutionary period is overdue anyway – generals like Custine, Hoche, Kleber, Marceau, Desaix, Lecourbe, Richpanse, Jourdan, Augereau and Bonaparte.

All is possible, but I don't know now, what exactly will be the next projects after current ones. All depends, what my fingers want to sculpt on that moment.. May be some infantry?

Please go with von Winterfeldt's suggestion. Revolutionary French staff would be fantastic!

If you are set on doing infantry, how about Russians for Suvarov's camapaign in Italy?

Or….

Bavarian's with von Rumsford uniforms.

British for Egypt.

I can think of more.

some infantry?
Yes please

French infantry in helmet in 1791 – :-))

I forgot Massena

Revolutionary French Staff set please!

I can't promise nothing, but some suggestions seems interesting.
At first I must finish current projects.
Cossacks and Austrians after two weeks and then Krakusen and new Towarzyc.
And I allways wanted to do Westphalian Infantry..

What is so specific about Westphalian infantry?
Any French infantry figure would do.

In 6mm yes, French Bardin, Westphalian, Saxons, Vistula Legion etc. all the same. But in 15(18)mm there are some differences.
And most important, I always wanted to do this.. My first sculpted figure was Westphalian, I like the sound of this word – Westphalia.

I have cash set aside for whatever Austrians you can get into production.

Westphalians don't really interest me unfortunately, but keeping to that area, if you did Hessians for 1798 those would be cool.

Sixth quiz..

another Murat

Yes. Murat at Borodino.

Still no Marengo Murat? :(

Marengo Murat is also on the table. Borodino one was just more recognizable for quiz.

All Murat line is under resculpting, they have too tiny feets, must be bigger.

Seventh quiz..

Is it early revolutionary period Belgian? I know they had the neck tie.

No, French. But revolutionary period is right.

Hint.. this figure probably always act as part of group on gametable, not separate individual (like flagbearer may be).

he is wearing boots, so an officer – or another special rank, a tambour – major?

Could be an officer, or sergeant, with an esponton/spontoon? Could even be a Paris Guard veteran with a half-pike?

Von Winterfeldt nailed this. Tambour-major is correct answer. I make a boyband of barefeet drummers.

ooooo a band!!! nice. Totally useless in game terms, but nice!!!

please don't do all without shoes, I will send you some very nice contemporary pictures in due course, showing a huge variaty of boy drummers

One Osprey contain picture of boyband, I copy this. Only one boy will be without shoes.

immage sent, you will love it

Thanks. Yes, boys here have almost exactly the same image as in Osprey picture.
One inspiring detail, when Austrian wear oak leaf on top of hat in war, then revolutionary French wear spoon. :)

Eighth quiz..

Hmmm,,,,I might have an idea Sho!!;) I am guessing its NOT Austrian!!

Very true.. ;-)

The rolled up greatcoat in front of the rider seems familiar…(?)

Picture changed to new one, as hint.

French Guard Eclaireur? top of my head not sure which regiment

You nail this! :-)
2nd Regiment.
