Completed Swiss Infantry

Here is my completed battalion of Swiss Infantry. The figures are Warlord games French Napoleonic Line infantry painted as the 3rd Infantry Regiment. I haven't done the standard yet, but I'm going to have a "flag day" as I've got quite a few units now without standards.

Swiss Infantry

The first two bases of Swiss Infantry are finished. These are painted as the 3rd Infantry Regiment.
Sadly I seem to have run out of bases so I will need to order some more

Swiss Infantry WIP

Progress has been slow over the new year with my first battalion of Swiss Infantry. These figures are painted to represent the 3rd Battalion. Obviously white (crossbelts/trousers) and highlights still need to be painted.

Colonel Barnards Flank Battalion

Colonel Barnards flank battalion at Barrosa is all finished. The astute amongst you will notice that the Portuguese are missing. They are boxed up elsewhere for now (Christmas drinks in Cadiz?!). They will reappear in the new year!

Flank Battalion WIP

Highlighting and shading wash done on the battalion. All that is left to do now is the straps and pipeclay in white (black for the rifles) and maybe some different coloured hair..
The light is getting poor now so I'll finish them off tomorrow.

Flank Battalion WIP

As you can see, the bulk of the uniform colour is added. Will be adding a shade of "skeleton bone" for the drummers coat and the redcoats white facings, plus silver for gun barrels and blades, before giving them all a once over with some army painter "strong tone". Next stage will be to highlight the existing colours.
