It is quite a time since my last post. So lets start with some recaps of the last months work. Here all the results of the Wurttemberg Artillery, a more than 1 year work , from the historical research, to the 3d sculpting and printing of the masters, to the masters adjustment for moulding, and the making of all the figures. A stunning result i dear to say.
Here the 3D prints of the Wurttemberg Artillery, we will soon adapt it for metal production and sculpt the figures around. All the sets will be released at the end of the year.
The Bavarian Artillery with Manson Ordnance is ready for production, several sets with figures and guns. Here the Horse team with 6 horses and the Drivers or Fuhrwesen composed of 4 figures.soon available in the shop.
Following the realisation of the Manson Ordnance, the masters of 7 sets are now at the producer for testing and moulding: 2 train sets, including a horse team of 6 horses, and a drivers team of 4 figures, plus 5 sets of light artillery, including the limber crew, the team sitting on the wurst, 2 sets manning the gun, loading and firing and a Command set including a wounded figure.
With this Command set the voluminous body of the French Horse Artillery 1806 is ready. (It is still missing a mounted set in sculpting phase now). It is made of 3 mounted figures , a foot one firing his pistols inspired from the Lejeune paining , and a wounded figure.
Here the test casts of the coming 2 sets of French HA, First set is loading/aiming , second is firing ; each set has 8 men crew and it can be filled with the complementary set of the Horse holders. Will follow a mounted command set. We have also 2 special pieces which will be added for free with battle packages.
A lot of boting work for finishing all the details of the masters, in the view of production.
This set is finally done... all details done, ready for the queue of set done.
Here a scheme i made from the good article of Karl Baron Smola on horse artillery organization you can find translated in the Napoleon Series Articles I hope it is enough correct.
Here the first set of the French Line horse Artillery 1806, loading team, 7 figures, sabres and sabretaches must be sculpted but i'm thinking to keep them as separate pieces in order to have more details and less undercut points.
