Voltigeur

I have done the entire Voltigeur of the Napoleon at War at once. They are the difficulties to paint. So many different colors. Hopefully they are just few. But still time consuming.

1. NaW french Battalion

I am very happy and excited to have my first French Battalion finished. The miniatures are form an new rang of 18mm. The company is called "Man at War" This Figures are form the range "Napoleon at War" The miniatures are very fine detailed and every single detail is sculpted on. So the miniatures are historical correctly. Also are the bases included in the big box of Line infantry Miniatures.

Rules are also availably. Which look very easy to learn. When I have finished a few Battalions its time for play testing.

2nd finished Line Infantry

This morning I shape the Base. So time to show the result. The photo is with both finished Line Infantry for a better view of the whole project.

 First and second Line Infantry. The right one is the new one.

First finished Line Infantry

Got the first line company finished.

Three companies to go and one of each Grenadier and Voltigeur.

Finished Old Guard Grenadiers

The first base is finished for General de Brigade.
Its the Old Guard Grenadiere.

WiP Old Guard Grenadiers

Some of the Old Guard Grenadiers from Victrix are close to finish. But they are already to be shown. Today I glued them on the Base. 3 are to come for this 6er Base.

Harlequine Colonel

I was seeing this miniature from Victrix and the first I got in mind was a Parade. So I decided to make a Harlequin of him.
All those diamonds drive me crazy, but finally I got it. :-)

Some closeups

French napoleonic Colonel

Some pals an me started a General de Brigade project. The first I began to paint is a Colonel. It was a very joy to paint this beautiful 28mm Victrix Miniature.

This is the first finished model just the basing is missing.

Some Infantry. After our Meeting which Basing-system we should use I was guessing we will have 4 Miniatures on one base. But afterwards we decided to use 45x40 bases which means to be placed 6 Miniatures on one single base. So there are two to go.

Last but not least I finished yesterday a command Figure.

Infanterie der Franzosen 6mm

Da sie fast fertig sind und zu meiner vollsten Zufriedenheit ausfallen, einen kleinen Blick in die 6mm Werkstatt. Einzig die Begrünung fehlt. Die Kommt sobald ich einen Staticgrass -Werfer mein eigen nenne darf. Das würde die Minis noch um einiges aufwerten. Jedoch seht erst mal selbst.

Ein paar der elitären leichten Infanterie der Franzosen.

Die Fahne kommt später dazu.

kleiner Haufen napoleonischer Franzosen

Will mal ein paar meiner 15mm Napoleonischen Franzosen präsentieren. Die Figuren sind von Warmodelling.

Und noch ein Gesamtbild der ganzen Einheit

An diesen Modellen hab ich erst mal nur die Farbwahl getestet. Um zu sehen wie was am besten wirkt. Manchmal bleiben eben einige Soldaten auf der Strecke. ;)
