More AB Napoleonics
/I completed my first battalion of early period French infantry in April this year, but have then spent the last four months trying to decide whether they are too big to match my existing collection of 15mm figures and scenery.
A recent 15mm re-fight of Talavera re-awakened my interest in the period, and I loudly assured everyone there that I had now made up my mind: the AB figures are too big and I would get ride of the battalion I’d painted, and the two unpainted ones as well, and swap to true 15’s.
I then went looking for a range of true 15’s to take their place.
I couldn’t find one.
Or, to be more accurate, I couldn’t find one that I liked as much as the AB figures!
So I changed my mind again, and am back on the 18’s!
Here’s the next battalion of Frenchies done…although I really must get better at painting the rosettes on the bicornes!
And just to make sure I won’t flip-flop again, the next battalion (the 3ieme!) is already undercoated and part-painted and I’ve just ordered another three battalions as well.
