Russian Kharkov Dragoons





 The Kharkov Dragoons were in Bagrations' 2nd Army of the West. They were part of the 4th Cavalry Corps under General Siever. The 4th Corps also had the New Russia Draggons, Kiev Dragoons and Lithuania Uhlans which I've already painted.

These are more Old Glory 15mm figures. I used a mixture of contrast paints and traditional acrylic paints. I am happy with the results I got from the 2 methods.

French 33e Ligne

 In 1812 the 33e was part of the 1st Corps under Davout. They were in Friant's II Division. 

Friant's II Division was a veteran division that was heavily engaged during the whole Russian campaign. They were always sent to support other Corps when there was need.
