Last of the Close Order Infantry done. That's 14  units of 6 bases of 16 figures, 12 Ligne, 2 Legere.

Need to paint the remaining 40 skirmishers to make 10 bases.

Then onto the remaining guns.

144 cavalry already done (4x6x6)

I've been asking around trying to get the muskets printed. No one has come back to me.

Those look great en mass, plus the 'old school' look is really rather nice.

Got the Austrians through about a month ago, but only got round to them last week.

This also included more French gunners, as mine appeared to have deserted. Finished the last of 9 French guns this afternoon, while watching "Fantastic Voyage". The tray has space remaining for 4 stands so that will be skirmishers, 16 figures.

However have first 7 packs of Austrians undercoated. White  :D . these should be a lot quicker than the French because of that.

Also got all the Brunswickers from 1809. I finally have an army I can't be tempted to add to!

Walt's done a fantastic job working out which figures I need, matching ,my demand for grenzers and uhlans up with his catalogue.  I even have lots of tiny eagles to complete the French flagpoles with.

As hoped for the German Austrians are really quick to knock out, as I don't have to  do the jackets, but there was some minor touching up for figures and places the spray had missed, mostly my nemesis on strips, the sleeves. I did the basics on 5 units (each 12 strips of 8 men).

Faces, blankets, back of head, pack done. The black bits- boots and helmet taking longer because of having to do the sides. Did one unit between Christmas and new year in fits and starts, but if I sit down tomorrow should have a total of 6 units  ready for basing.

Not quite as far as hoped. Need to put the pen line between legs, also Austrians need arms delineating because all white.

Also the helmet plaque and brush need doing.

Still damn quick.
