First Look at the Napoleonic Bavarians!

[Leon]

The Bavarians will be the next nation to get the Napoleonic treatment, and this lot arrived here before Xmas.  These masters have already been through the master moulding process, so there is the odd bit of putty missing from some of them, nothing to worry about on the master castings though!  Once we've got the full range here, we'll be releasing these in one big batch.

Foot command:



Line/lights, with mounted Officer:



There'll be more to come soon!

Beautiful - any chance of creating a loading figure as the one on the right in the first pic also for the French?

First pic on the right is the hornist for the light's?  We're still considering going back and doing a loading figure from scratch for the French.

The great thing with Bavarians is they later switched sides so can be added to a French army as allies but if you are short of opponents you cam lend someone the Bavarians

Oh, I see. I mistook it for him taking something out of an ammo bag. Good news on the loading figure in any event.

Lovely...dammit

That Napoleonic itch is just getting worse and worse.   I think the French had at least a division, maybe a Corps, of the Bavarians in 1809. 

[J.S.]

Oh boy, I'm going to get a lot of these 

[Bernie]

Nice looking figures - excellent stuff

Hi

Whole Bavarian Corps at Abensberg so if doing other battles then you can go whole way and field lots and lots of Bavarians

[Rob]

Will there be a grenadier figure Leon? Same uniform but with a small plume on the left side of the helmet. These were used in 1809 and could also be used as later Bavarian light company figures, where the plume was green as opposed to grenadier red.

[Leon]

We've now got the artillery crews, and limber teams through for the Bavarians.  These will be going into the drawer with the other Bavarians, ready for a full range release soon.

Crew:



Limber horse and marching gunner:

[Techno]

These will be going into the drawer

My desk's bad enough !!
Cheers - Phil.
