I liked this one so much I just had to paint him!
I’d never seen any of the figures in this range before these lads arrived in the post. I have enough of them now to put together a mixed figure unit for the young general Bonaparte to command.

Some units continued with their bicornes into 1809 or even later so these guys can be mixed in. I think the imperial old guard grenadiers and chasseurs may well have worn them instead of the heavy bearskin on occasion.

Roy - that's a good idea to mix them with the shako types. My French forces seem to be slowly growing so we must get together again in the spring!
My Russkies march after the snowmelt then!

Ok then - after the snow melts and I've finished the Imperial Guard grenadiers...
Happy New Year 2014 for you and yours!
Cheers Rafa!
