Regimental History Anrsburg's First Regiment of Foot

Arnsburg 1st Regiment is commanded by Colonel Heinrich Rudat.  The Regiment was first formed in the year 2420 in the city of Arnsburg.  The Regiment has been in service for years and has seen action in various border wars with Bernefels and Mannebruck.  It's most famous action to date was at the battle of Genefeld. An invasion force from Mannebruck crossed the border and smashed into a local militia force.  The 1st Regiment of Foot along with some artillery and cavalry launched a counter attack and was able to drive off the invaders.  With rumors of the upcoming invasion of Munzirnbach, Colonel Rudat has been keeping his men in pristine condition.

Finished with the Viking project... back to the Dutchies

I finished and went to the con.  I made one war band for a buddy of mine and a ton of Saxon opponents.  The miniatures turned out really good in my opinion and has fueled my energy again to complete the current project.  I have many ideas for the Dutchy of Arnsburg in the future and I want to complete this chapter of their history.  I've created the master sheet of Mounted Dragoons and the master sheet of Commanders.  I have a couple more regiments of Cuirassiers to finish for the Arnsburg army.  I think I am going to start coloring Munzirnbach next so that way I can fight a small skirmish and test out the rules and campaign map.  The project is starting to shape up and hopefully by the summer time I will be in full swing with the campaign!  Here are some of the Vikings and Saxons:

Well it is now March and work continues on my little Viking project for my convention with my friends.  I've finished the Saxons and I'm now working on the Vikings.  I'm cutting it close and I will have to cut down some of the poses and variation in Vikings in order to get them colored and printed by March 21st.  So it is going to be some long weekend nights drawing and coloring away.  After that I will be back to work on the Arnsburg project.  Once I get them done I will be done with paper minis for a little bit.  I am going to go back to metal and plastic minis and get some much needed painting done!
