Retreat From Moscow
Rally to the Eagle
Apparently winter isn’t finished yet, with a last cold snap and snowfall before spring arrives. Which again got me in the right mood to paint some more Poles.
These are my last few Duchy of Warsaw models by Murawski Miniatures. Note the Polish eagle is silver with unfurled wings compared to the French. The flag is from GMB Flags, and is the 7th Regiment of Line Infantry. The 7th formed part of 28th Division of the Grande Armee, within IX Corps under Victor. IX Corps was an amalgam of French, Berg, Badenese, Polish and Saxon troops, and acted as the rearguard during the battle of Berezina, holding the east bank of the river whilst the remnants of the Grande Armee passed over hastily constructed pontoon bridges to finally escape from Russia.
There’s another repeat sculpt here, but again the setting means that there’s scope to alter colours to make them a bit more individual.
Brilliant! ???
Thanks Z. No doubt I’ll be adding more here at some stage, especially with some new Silver Bayonet releases coming out in a couple of months.
