The Great Plastics Revival - French Infantry and Artillery

 Over the past couple of months, I have been working through the mountain of French Line and Guard infantry and artillery.  The figires are a mix of Airfix, HaT, Revell, ESCI and Italeri.  

First off, we have the line infantry, with 11 battalions and three batteries of guns:

Airfix line infantry:
Esci line infantry
And the Imperial Guard, consisting of, five Old Guard battalions, two of Young Guard and three gun batteries:

I'm now starting to sort out the Prussians.

  1. A grand parade of your French infantry, they look great, all the different ranges work well together.

    1. I sense that I am getting there, with most of the figures rebased and touched up. Just the Russians and Prussians to go.

  2. That takes me back to when the marching figure in the artillery box was the only French line infantry I could get hold of.
