Nice work on a plastic that doesn't take paint too easily if I recall.

Three years after painting them I finally got round to mounting the French 4er Régiment de Hussards (St. Laurent)

Currently on book 6 in the Sharpe series, so I'm loving all these figures at the moment Ratch.

Cheers Nigel I must watch the DVD set again
Vanity Fair is on our screens on Sunday nights ATM and last week was Waterloo (though I wasn't impressed with the uniform depictions)

Another set completed.
The British, following the instructions in the Waterloo Gift Set and not really accurate. The drummer is painted as a French 7th Hussard and the Trumpeter and flag bearer as 5th Hussards.

This whole series you have done is fantastic - I commend you on your research, modeling, and 'stick-to-it-ive-ness'.

It's my model and I'll do what I want with it.

I'm not sure what company could afford that. Etling's 4 volume Napoleonic Uniforms is not restricted to Waterloo but gives an idea of the effort that would be required. Still I agree with you.Ratch wrote:Thanks John, its a pity they represent so few regiments at Waterloo
