French Napoleonic Part 4

 Rather than posting unit by unit, today's post includes the next three Light Infantry units painted plus some command stands.

Three command stands

Marching

Firing

More marching

And if you ever wondered about some of those complex moves, here is how AI thinks they would have been made.   The old side step to keep the enemies of France off balance.

33 of        55 Skirmishers              5 units of 11        Completed 60%  wow!

30 of      60 Cavalry                    4 units of 15        Completed 50%   getting there

9/36 of   9 Guns with 36 crew.                                Completed 100%    YAY

3 of        5 Command stands.                                    Completed 60%

Norm of battlefieldswarriors suggested I paint a playable army before completing the whole project (which is an excellent idea) so the next four units to be painted will be line infantry.  

French Napoleonic Part 3

 Another unit of French completed.

Cuirassiers again...

Not great --- contrast paint for horses and normal paints for rest.

Obligatory animation.... 

Figures 10mm from Pendraken

Not a great result, will win no awards, but another 15 figures done.

French Napoleonic Part 2

 Another post of my painting of the French army. This time a unit of French Cuirassiers.

First up the obligatory (and lots of fun) AI animation.

Still working on all the aspects of this.

Now some still pictures like a proper blogger posts.

Figures all from Pendraken's 10mm range.

Horses painted with GW contrast paints but the rest in standard acrylics.

Another 15 figures off the unpainted list.

Next up, not sure yet.
