Well they are not so pretty but they add some numbers! French line in great coats. Rank and file are Perry, command from Victrix.
4 Regiments completed.
For the Victrix command figures (from the Middle Guard box sets) I replaced the banner poles with brass wire, as the supplied plastic poles are quite thin. I drilled a hole in the plastic eagle and stuck it on top.
Getting these Victrix figures worked out quite well, as the 60 figure box set includes 12 command (4 each of officer, standard, drummer). Enough to do two regiments of 24, and supply command for another two regiments of Perry greatcoats, and have six rank and file left over.
Very nice Chasseur, more troops for the meat grinder.
ReplyDeleteAttractive troops as always, Mark!
