Finally finished the 48 figure Elite 28mm Austrian battalion, in this case IR 11 'Wallis' fro the French Rev collection:
I have an Old Guard unit unpainted, I wonder if with a small amount of work the figures could be done as Consular Guard for 1800? Really need another Austrian position battery as well, onwards ever onwards!
Dave.
Love em David. I do like the Elite Austrians.
ReplyDelete48 is big. I use 32 and thoight they were pretty unmanageable.
DeleteThat's an awful lot of figures to paint, but they do look good!
ReplyDeleteSuperb early Austrians Dave!
ReplyDeleteGreat work! The Elite Austrians really carry themselves with confidence and panache. Super figures. As for Old Guard as Consular Guard, I did the same with my 18mm project.
ReplyDeleteDelightful - I do like the kaskett and wish more manufacturers would do them (in 15mm).
ReplyDeleteAs for 15mm Austrians in casquet, AB, Lancashire, and now Old Glory/Blue Moon make them.
DeleteOooh! Thanks for that - I knew about the first two but Old Gory.
DeleteLovely big unit of Austrians!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thanks for the comments lads, part of the reason for the unit size is so the I can use them for Sharp Practice, 8 figures to a formation.
ReplyDeleteBig is autiful but time consuming. Still they are very lovely.
