These look really good! I'm on the verge of a Crimea-project so this was most welcome news!

Anything else planned?

I hope to cover the whole French army ... But it will take time ,please be patient ..

Zouaves and the guard high on my priorities ....

All the best. Aly

yes they would ! :D

they are accurate for 1845-66 period , Siege of Rome 1849, algeria (from ISLY 1845 to Kabilya 1854-57),  Italy 1859,China 1860, Syria,  mexico (for those in great coats!) .

I will certainly use "chasseurs à pieds" for my Siddi Brahim project !!!


best regards

Perhaps it´s time to re-take this period, now that I have the new "Muskets and Shakos" rulebook... These French are very nice figures!
