 I picked up some Essex Prussian Artillery in San Jose and I was excited to get them started. So, again, I continue with my 15mm Army.

 Prussian Jagers.

Small but, growing.

My Prussian Army is growing one painted figure at a time.
I am using the Army Painter dark shade.  Again, I don't see a real big difference between that and the Miniwax Polyshades Tudor color.  I will say it mixes a little better, but that is about it.
The figures are Battle Honors.  I do like the command set of Generals.  Blucher does look decent.

So, I thought I would add a few remarks on my experience with these two options for "dipping" your figures.  They both are about the same shade when they dry.  I think Army Painter drys a little faster and maybe a bit less sticky in final gloss appearance when it drys. But, honestly I can't see the difference except in the price. The Miniwax is $10.00 and the Army Painter is $30.00. I do appreciate Army Painter bringing a product as such and the other painting products. However, this is too expensive.

Here are a few sets I have been working on recently.
 The French Dragoons are AB 18mm, as are the French Imperial Guard Grenadiers a Cheval.
 The Prussian Landwehr are 15mm Battle Honors

I am working on my blog project!
