Saw these British infantry on eBay and put a bid in. the lady was selling them in groups of eight so I contacted her to get a price for the lot. She said that she was selling them on behalf of her uncle and that she would let them all go for £50, when they arrived there were double the amount I expected. This was very kind of her and I assured her that they would be put to good use.
I wanted to have 1815 British infantry but as these chaps have round shakos , no flank companies and no standard bearer they will do as Hanoverian Landwehr. As you can see from the first photo they had the basis of a paint job but did need some work, lining in is a bitch but I'll get there.

I know, one Minifig snuck in but what the heck!
