Cigar box gaming mat

This is the Cigar Box gaming mat I bought for myself for Christmas. It's the winter scrub mat. The gaming surface came in today's mail. The mat came very fast considering I ordered it Christmas day.

Mourom Regiment

These are more 15mm Old Glory Russians. RFD3. I painted them as the Mourom Regiment. They were First Army, 3rd Army Corp, 3rd Division, 2nd Regiment at Borodino. The flag like usual is from Nap Flag which I painted over.

15mm Old Glory Tchernigov Russians

The Tchernigov Reg. Was part of the First Army, 3rd Corp, 3rd Division at Borodino. These are 15mm Old Glory Miniatures. RCG7 only has 2 different figures. I like most of their figures but these are some the worst figures I've painted. I think the artist rushed them to fill out the line.

15mm Essex Isum Hussar

Another unit from the log jam on my desk. These are Essex 15mm Russian Isum Hussars. The Isum Regt. was awarded silver trumpets for capturing a standard, and rescuing Barclay de Tolley at Eylau. According to Philip Haythornthwaite. As I'm writing this I just noticed I made a mistake which I will fix. The Trumper doesn't have a red pompom.
Fixed!
