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.

Little Russia Cuirassier

I just finished these Little Russia Cuirassiers. They are Old Glory 15mm like the rest of my Russian heavy calvary. I've really taken a liken to the contrast paints from GW. With a little high lighting and some old fashion painting on the faces and other places. They came out at my standard.

Wurttemberg 1st Light Infantry Regiment

The Wurttemberg 1st Light Infantry Regiment was part of Marshal Ney's 3rd Army Corps in 1812.
The Wurttemberg Division was designated the 25th Division under Marchand's command in the Grand Army.
The Division was heavily used in the Russian campaign. At Borodino they were used to attack the fleches. Where the Division was counter attacked by the Russian Cuirassiers and were forced into square. Marshal Murat famously used one of the squares to protect himself.I know this unit did not have a flag. But I liked the look.
