Post by: abu iskander on October 07, 2018, 02:54:28 PM: Thanks gentlemen. Lot of basing to catch up on. I tend to do it all at once to keep it consistent.

Here's a few more units, based this time.

Also, took all my Old Glory French command sets and broke them up into named commander vignettes:

Over time, they'll end up like this. Sorry for the poor image here, colo(u)rs look flat...

Picton and some AdCs

Some serious OG 'Hey Steve' going on here with Marshal Oudinot

And the Corsican Ogre himself. Say what you will about vintage OG, but I think they did well with this one.
