British 3rd Battalion 1st Infantry Regiment

 Another British Napoleonic unit rolls off the painting desk. The 3rd Battalion 1st Infantry Regiment.

In a stunning turn around from painting the unit and then shoving any random flag on them, this time I chose the unit based on the Pendraken flags I purchased, meaning they have the correct facings, plume, and uniform*. Another step further into the morass of Napoleonic Nerdery.

* assuming the website I looked at is accurate (of course it is, you are not allowed to put anything wrong on the internet!!)

Here they are:

The thin red line about to fire a broadside.... no that's the navy.. fire a volley at those damn French

A rear view.

So one week and one unit done, maybe completing them by Christmas is possible. 😂

Only 8 units to go in 11 weeks!

Ha ha, who am I kidding 🤣🤣🤣🤣

British Napoleonics Cavalry

 Some more British Napoleonics roll off the painting desk.

One unit of Dragoons, one of Household Cavalry and five commanders

Dragoons heading left

Dragoons wheeling right

Bunch of commanders ready to lead everyone to a glorious victory or epic defeat. On the left the newly promoted horse artillery outrider.

Household cavalry .... black horses except for the bugler who has a white horse. See I do do some internet research. I presume the bugler has a distinctive horse so that the enemy shoots him 😮😁 

Another view.

I might have to increase the amount of flock on the bases.
