Yes, stuck indeed. One thing I'm not stuck for is offering congratulations to you for an imaginative vignette beautifully painted and staged. Thanks for sharing. |

Clever indeed. Not enough imagination shown generally. We all tend to just line them up as infantry or cavalry and position them around the guns (the latter randomly alas)…… That is clever to show the stuck caisson |

Thanks chaps, enjoyed painting them if not sticking the damn things together.

Dave,
Know what you mean about sticking them together. Just finished recovering three that had been previously assembled and block painted by, I can only say, a bumbling idiot (upside down arms and coat tails, upside down axles etc)
Yours look great, love the stuck limber as well.
One question, didn't the RA still have white turnbacks untill the 1812 uniform changes introduced red and the belgic shako? |

White turnbacks were adopted by the RA in 1782; I'm not sure if the Royal Irish Artillery kept them as a distinction (until 1801, when they were absorbed into the 7th Battalion, RA). |
