Hanseatic Legion - New napoleonic figures in 28 mm
« on: May 21, 2017, 09:32:16 AM »
Today I would like to introduce you, my dear readers, a small series of miniatures. A collectors' colleague has modeled very beautiful figures of the Hanseatic Legion.
Meanwhile, Klaus decided to sell these miniatures to interested persons. Klaus is not a professional dealer. Therefore, there is also no webshop, or any web page.
If you like the figures, you can contact Klaus directly.
Have fun with the pictures and the report.
Report in german and introduction in english.

Napoleonic time. The Hanseatic Legion was a militia of the german cities Hamburg, Bremen and Lübeck, fighting against the French between 1813 and 1814.

Nice work! Both the sculpting and the painting. I think the Legion was put into Russian-style shakos and coats in 1814, weren't they?
best regards

Right. In 1814 they get new uniforms.

Very interesting set of figures, I have never come across this Legion before so this is an interesting development. Good luck for this venture. :)

I like the long frock coats. I feel like I want to convert them to something 40K or Rogue Trader!  lol
I am going to build a wargames army, a big beautiful wargames army, and Mexico is going to pay for it.
