Thanks gentlemen.

A modest update... some Jaegers and a BN gun

Looking great.  Have you seen this site?

https://www.grundschule-pretzschendorf.de/en/Our_village/paper_models.html

They are paper models for a Christmas Diorama but some work very well for Napoleonic buildings in 6 mm.

eg


They have various half timber houses, barns, a couple of churches, etc.

I had spotted this nice site long ago and downloaded all the buildings, but didn't make them yet...
In 6mm scale they will look just great!!!

Some progress. Slow going these days due to other obligations, but progress is progress...

Prussian Fusiliers... waiting on flags to finish up some last details.





And the Austrians have arrived. Couldn't resist test painting some of them.

You realize putting too much of such insanity on display is likely to result in a contagion, yes?

Bacchus figures? 

All quite nice except that tree is WAY too wide but easily fixed if you trim it down some - though likely easier to buy smaller trees. 

Madness, madness, I say.  What was the name of that river they were building a bridge over?  ;)

Lovely work. Love the mass look of the Battalions. It will look epic on the table for a game.

Thanks all. Yes, Baccus figures. Minimal progress this week, but sharing to help keep me motivated. Lots more well underway, but not yet camera ready.
