Spring cleaning, and that means finishing up a lot of half-painted lead, getting a lot of basing done, etc. I finished these British Hussars over the weekend, and completed the basing last night. Thirty one stands, 3 figures per stand. Baccus 6mm figures.

Very nice!
The size of your units is scary :(
I was doing a similar basing system when i started out with 6mm, but the sheer scale of the amount of figures i would have needed to paint meant the project would have probably fizzled out, so i went with the polemos basing system. |

@Moonfleet This is for a smaller project using s 2.5:1 figure ratio. I'm going to do enough units for a small battle – maybe a brigade per side. Just to show how out of whack our normal units really appear! |

Cracking stuff sir! That is a proper unit!! |

I salute you – so often the smaller figures are used in "12 man battalions" and create no extra visual impact, so whenever I see BIG units I applaud. Of course, if the small figure guys are happy with small units, then more power to them as well – no flame war on this point for me thank you. Just I love seeing BIG units. |

I do that as well…30mm square bases for "Grande Armee" in Pocket Scale. Lets you do big battles (Leipzig) on a table instead of a gym floor! |
