Hi again!
Finally, after about 4 months since starting, I've finally finished my Muscovite army for By Fire and Sword. This has been my major project since the end of last year so it's a huge relief to finally finish it.
Kind of. As with all things wargaming, a project is never really finished. In the future I want to add small Soldat and Field Dragoon regiments along with a hefty artillery contingent. I also intend on buying two of the Cossack Skirmish Set boxes to field them as either a large standalone skirmish force or as an allied regiment for the Muscovites. But, these are future plans and I have some smaller projects upcoming before I start buying more BFaS.
Upcoming on the blog expect to see Firestorm Planetfall and some 10mm ancients. I've grabbed some Gauls from Pendraken which I can't wait to paint and I'm really excited that I managed to get my hand on the two player starter for the long out of print Planetfall. Onto the pictures!
Editors Note: Pictures had to be re-uploaded as somehow they broke. How annoying!

I love the Streltsy models - full of character! |

Bonus pic! My Holy Roman Empire army occupies the left tray. Plenty of room to expand the Muscovites then... |
Thanks again for looking, I hope this post can serve as an inspiration for finishing your own army. I also know there's not a lot of pictures of painted Muscovite armies on the internet and in particular very few photos of Streltsy so hopefully it's also a good resource for those considering starting the Muscovites.
Bye / До свидания!
