2nd Continental Light Dragoons

As is often the case with me I find myself behind on posting figures I've painted and this is no exception. I painted these a few months ago, but just now got around to posting them. I really do need to up my game so to speak in terms of posting what I've finished.

Adding some more AWI units in the form of the 2nd continental light dragoons, but I'll likely use them to represent any continental cavalry. I usually use historical units as a guide to painting units rather then using them for just when that regiment actually was fielded so if I make errors it's not that important as long as they look the part.

These are Perry miniatures and were actually quite difficult to do in terms of painting. They are all one piece sculptures which you would think would be easier, but for some reason the riders were quite a bit thinner then their separate rider sculpts and the detail was quite shallow in some places that I had to paint in my own which made painting them trickier and swearier then normal. The pay off is always great with Perry miniatures as they look really nice when finished, but they do make you work for it at times!

This past year or two I've made an extra effort to paint cavalry as most of my collections lack the correct amount as I tend to put them off and I'm happy to report I do have more cavalry completed coming up although in a different period.

I hope to get the units I already painted up posted soon, before the AHPC begins in December which should be fun!

Thanks for viewing!
