Tarleton's Legion & 17th Light Dragoons - painted pictues


British Legion Cavalry - 7 poses (click to enlarge).


Here are some pictures of all of the British Legion and the 17th Light Dragoons that are now painted. When you put all seven of the British Legion poses together you really begin to appreciate how animated the figures are, en masse.


(L-R) Officer, Trumpeter, Firing Pistol
British Legion (L-R) Officer, Charging #1, Charging #2, Shouldered Sword.



British Legion (L-R) Charging #2, Charging #1, Hacking.


British Legion (L-R) Shouldered Sword, Firing Pistol.

And the I was able to paint all four of the British 17th Light Dragoons that were just added to the range. I had them done in charging poses so that they would fit in with the British Legion in the Carolinas Campaign.
