MORE NAPOLEONIC REINFORCEMENTS

I have been working away on completing my Christmas and New Year holiday projects.

I have added some artillery and French staff to my Napoleonic collection. The figures are by Foundry, Elite and Perry and were painted by Reinforcements by Post in Bangladesh as a commission whilst I painted the gun models. The guns are the impressive models from Elite. I like the look of these guns so much that I have ordered more of the Russian 6 pdr guns to re-equip some of my Russian foot batteries which at the moment all have 12 pdr guns.

The new staff figures are from the Perry pack FN2 (Corps Commanders - d’Erlon, Reille and Lobau). I have based these figures in pairs along with some of my existing figures as command vignettes. The 3mm thick MDF bases are from Warbases and the Silflor tufts were supplied by Mutineer Miniatures.

When I played my Germantown AWI game I realised that I lacked anything to represent the British camp so last week I ordered sets of  plastic tents from Renedra. They arrived very quickly and I am  pleased with the finished results. I based the ridge tents on 2mm MDF Warbases pill shaped bases.
