Next figures for the French revolution

My idea of arranging a group of people who would come together in creating a range of figures for the French Revolution worked:-) I have now "volunteers" (me included) for the production of 50 figures in this range.

After the Austrians and the French horse artillery as well as Napoleon as a personality here are now advancing French infantrymen in different uniforms.

In old Royal white uniform




Grenadiers




Fusiliers or national guard/volunteers





light infantry (carabiniers)



This set is a try of the different uniforms. Later I want to expand each of the variations to a set with all kind of poses like marching, standing and a firing line.

But the next set now will be Bavarian infantry in Rumford uniform.

ACW Navy

These conversions here I found on Ebay. My first thought was "I will buy them". But as the price was not cheap my next thought was "We could produce something ourselves".

What do you think about some Ironclads for the ACW? Would it be an interesting subject?

Here the photos from Ebay.

Battle of Lützen

Our hobbyfriend Frank visited the town of Lützen, near Leipzig.

There is a museum which has two nice flat-figure dioramas. I had the chance to visit the museum around 20 years ago (without a camera).

One of the dioramas is the battle of Lützen 1813, the other one the battle of the 30years war in wich the Swedish King Gustaph Adolf met his dead.

See here the photos which I have taken from Frank's blog
