As with the Roosians I found getting on all the basics colours seemed to take much longer than for the British figures - kilted chappies excepted - but getting the highlights done seemed to take no time at all. It's probably an illusion caused by all the area to be covered with French Blue! Up
I'm expecting to host Dan from Wargames Illustrated early in next month for a photoshoot. He will take the usual humongous number of pictures in order to find about ten or so for the magazine to accompany a piece I've written. Oh, and perhaps a few more for the web page and Farcebook. Me? I'll be holding up the sky again!
My final addition to this part of the Crimean War project deserves it's own mention: the two figures for the French Brigade's Command stand.
As I've mentioned previously, Great War Miniatures did not make a Higher Command pack in this part of the range, an omission alongside artillery. I have sourced the figures for my Command base from Foundry's Maximilian Adventure and Old West ranges. A different style of figure, but they meet the need at present. Of course, if Dave and Aly should decide to expand the range along those lines then I'd be in! Finally, the French Infanterie de Ligne Brigade out on the table in GHQ ~
Excellent work as always David and nice to see them en review:).
ReplyDeleteLovely addition to your French brigade, they look great and nice to see the review of the completed brigade, hope they do well when they get their chance on the table.
