Bits and Pieces
Napoleonic French Young Guard
As a change from painting ancients I looked in the “pile of potential” and pulled out a battalion of French Young Guard in campaign dress. These are from Elite Miniatures (who by the way give a unique experience in their online store 😉).
So the intention was to give a less uniform appearance so trousers were painted in multiple colours (blue, brown and white). However as you can see from the photographs I wasn’t paying attention when I based the figures up so all the white trousered individuals have been put in the rear ranks doh!
This also brought home why it takes me so long to paint Napoleonic figures when I put away the 23 paints I had used on the figures 😂.
