Very nice paintjobs.  Front Rank are still my favourite Napoleonics along with Gringo 40s.

Like the paint job very much. Sculpts bit too wooden for me.

They're nice to paint though, not too fussy. I'm not good enough for fussy!  lol

Very nice, my favourite Napoleonics as well. :)

Nicely done  :D

My only suggestion would be to make the horses' irises much bigger. In reality you can rarely see any of the white of their eyes at all. More shows if they are very aggitated, but even then it is just a little.

Well done!  8)

I would only point out that French tack (reins, bridle, etc.) was universally black leather, with the exception of some high ranking general officers.

Nice work, on one of my favourite figure lines.
