Dismounted 15 mm dragoons for an 18th century Spanish army - wargame with miniatures

  • Almost finishing my 15 mm army to play with the Maurice rules, a unit of dismounted Dragoons as a complement to my Dragoons unit, an extra that is not necessary in these rules but can be interesting for others. Also, I have based them so that they can be used as detachments.
    I have not found Spanish Dragoons from the War of Spanish Succession period, so I have ended up using figures from various sources (Legio Heroica, Khurasan Miniatures and Lancer Miniatures) with the appearance of the 1718 uniform, after the war was over.
    I used the free Vidnoz AI for the voice-over.

    You achieved a very nice yellow, the look lovely! And you matched figures from three different manufactures perfectly! Very instructive, thank you or sharing!

    Well done with these. They really look lovely. I also applaud your extensive research even if you couldn't match the actual figure you needed. It certainly wasn't for lack of trying on your part, and the unit you developed her is elegant and certainly a worthwhile addition to any wargames table! Well done!

      Thank you very much. Historical rigor is certainly not my priority, but I do think it should be taken into account a lot to know what you have in your hands.

    Preciosos. Cada vez más pienso que esta época es más chula que la napoleónica en cuanto a uniformes se refiere, pero veo escasas miniaturas al alcance.

      Si te interesa ver variedad de uniformes y fabricantes, mírate este blog de mi compañero de juegos Lluís Vilalta: soldadets.blogspot.com/p/segle-xviii.html tiene muy bien documentada cada unidad de los varios ejércitos que ha pintado.

    Really nicely painted and based. Thank you for sharing. What is the paste you use for the feathers on the officers hat?

    • @MinisMyWay
      @MinisMyWay  День тому +1

      It is a paste that comes prepared for DIY, to cover joints in tiles and cracks in plaster, but it is not plaster, when it dries it looks like plastic. According to the formula on the bottle it is composed of benzoisothiazolone and methylthiazolonecloromethylthiazolone (?) Some time ago I found myself without Green Stuff at hand and I tried it.... Although it's not a specific product for this, I've been using it for years for small touch-ups when I just need to sculpt small bumps without much shape, and I've never had any problems. Thank you for your comment!

    They look great, Alex. What rules require the Horse Holder stands? Beneath the Lily Banner? I don't remember Maurice needing them.

    • @MinisMyWay

      No, Maurice does not contemplate them. I think Beneath does (I've only played a limited test game) but in any case it's a matter of metagame: my partner Lluís has dragons in his Catalan army, and it's sure that when we play he'll want to apply even as home rule.
