Hi Paul

Looks like you get good variety out of a fairly narrow range cos of head swaps?

Ian, any progress with the Guard de Paris?

Also, do you know if First Legion 40mm horses are available?

Excellent painting.  The leathers in particular are really nice.

Hi Paul - all finished and based and awaiting their castle to defend !
First Legion horses still available but only with riders and from the States so expensive

Hmm, reminds me to think about what to use for the Garde de Paris in my upcoming Bailen game next week. I don't have any such figures. French line? Nassau troops (at least they are in green uniforms)? Neuchatel battalion (easy to tell them fron the other French)?

Very nice work, sir.
And the glorious general led the advance
With a glorious swish of his sword and his lance
And a glorious clank of his tin-plated pants. - Dr. Seuss
