Hungarian grenadiers by Armand d'Arc

Again the work of my Argentinian friend Armand d'Arc


This time, Armand show us a batallion of Hungarian grenadiers defending Norden Cota, a fortified advanced post of the Allied (British-German) in his fictional African campaign, near the frontier with the Associated territory.


There are some old Airfix British grenadiers but the ca. 400 men are conversions from different sources, requiring the modelling of the typical chair-shaped headdress.


These men are destined to fight against the Cazadores de Balbastro, the Colonel Pardo's men!

Polish and Hungarian uhlans by Armand d'Arc

No, the above title is not an error. Armand d'Arc, our Argentinian friend, has painted a big squadron of Polish and Hungarian uhlans. These last are a poetic license, but in the Armand's ficticious African campaign there are many 'what if' units and personalities... See the Austrian general in the third picture: he is Colloredo during his colonial adventure! The general in the fourth figure is Milos Sztabay, a ficticious Hungarian nobleman and the owner of the Hungarian uhlans.
