Quatre Bras project - 2nd Nassau Battalion

For those of you who are fans of our crazy and large scale projects - the next one in the pipeline is Quatre Bras - using a lot of the troops featured in our Waterloo game.
We are doing a much more civilised 1:20 scale for this battle - mainly because we wouldn't have enough room for the battlefield otherwise!!
My first contribution is these guys - 2nd Battalion of the Nassau Regiment

French Voltiguers

Chris mentioned we needed more French Skirmishers for the Waterloo game, so I dug about in the drawer and found these chaps to paint. Hope you enjoy. As always comments welcome.
