120mm Napoleonics - Revisited

I did some dusting of the cabinets with my large scale figures, so figured I'd take a group photo of the 120mm Napoleonics I painted a long time ago - before I got into 28mm gaming figures. These are all Verlinden resin kits except for the guy with the colors painted up as the 4th Swiss made by a company called Dream Catcher (probably out of business by now). Note the four 28mm Victrix guys in the center.
Let's see if I can remember who they are; from left to right: Sergeant Major, Legere Voltigeur ; Sergeant, Foot Dragoons (rear); Sergeant Major, Guard Grenadiers; Officer, Chasseur a Cheval of the Guard; General Jean-Joseph Ange d'Hautpoul (rear on horse); Trumpeter, Train of Artillery; Officer, 4th Swiss (rear); Sergeant Major, Line Grenadiers; Officer, 1st Polish Lancers (rear); Colonel, Carabiniers (rear on horse); Sapper, Guard Chasseurs; Officer, Lieb Hussars. The British are noticeably absent for some reason.
Just felt like sharing some eye-candy as I've not painted anything recently.

  6. Really well done. We had a fellow in the club who painted a lot of 120mm figures, and they do have a certain appeal, don't they? I have a few Verlinden kits that I should break open. You have inspired me, sir!

    1. Thank you kindly, Phil. Although I'd taken pics of each individually, I never did a group shot, so this was sort of new :) Kind regards, Dean
