Something Old, Something New

Been busy sorting out various "odds and ends" over the last month or so, some AWI "old school" hessian commanders and artillery for one, but a few Napoleonic items as well. So here we have another  ex WHC "restored" unit, its the French 39th Ligne

And also managed to complete a "new" French line Artillery battery of 8pdrs. All Connoisseur with a few head swaps and minor tweaks, except one of the officers who is a Bicorne with a head swap

Those Connoisseur figures are wonderful. I'm painting a British regiment of 84 figures at this moment (1:10 ratio) and the figures practically flow off my brushes. I think that I might order a 72 figure French btn in shakos for my Peninsula adventure.

Dave,

Indeed, I think the unit was done by Doug M, but can't be sure for certain. Working on repairing a sister unit just now, the 33rd Ligne.

Cheers


John
