Having somewhat sickened myself painting 10mm I felt that a change of scale was in order, so looking into the 28mm pile of unpainted figures I decided upon a box of Perry French 1812-15 plastic infantry. Now the last plastic infantry I did was a box of the original Vitrix which from memory you had so many parts that I'm sure I remember gluing the bollocks onto a couple of figures! So it was a relatively pleasant surprise to find that the figures could be assembled fairly easily.
Painting followed the standard procedure and the following unit is the result:
Next, well as I am particularly enjoying playing Sharp Practice and given the fact that there are some ready painted 15mm Franco Prussian figures doing nothing in particular I have decided to base them up for a game. We will see if I can stretch the range of these excellent rules to cover this period.
