28mm French Revolutionary Armies & Enemies

28mm French Revolutionary Armies & Enemies.

Continuing with the French Revolutionary project I had a chance to finish a single French 8 pounder gun and crew, these can be used for either the Army of the North or Napoleon Bonaparte's Italian and Egyptian campaigns. The crewmen are from Brigade Games whilst the 8 pounder gun is from Hinchliffe.co.uk available through Hind Figures Ltd. The 8 pounder was supplied with 2 different barrels so I could have made a 6/4 pounder if required.

Brigade Games provided the gun crew, they also supply a crew loading so I'll try and order one in the near future.

Also are a few pictures of Monsieur Bonaparte as Consul I managed to finish this week, the figure is manufactured by Trent miniatures and available unpainted from the 'North Star' website northstarfigures.com

Hopefully I can finish the rest of the French Revolutionary infantry battalion soon.

28mm French Revolutionary Armies & Enemies.

A project which has interested me for a long time when I stumbled across Brigade Games' 28mm French revolutionary miniatures some months ago and purchased 1 battalion of 24 figures to create a line battalion for either the Army of the North or Napoleon Bonaparte's Italian and Egyptian campaigns.  I'll add some pictures of these revolutionary infantry at a later date as I am halfway through painting the figures.

So I thought I add some pictures of General Brune I managed to finish this week, the figure is manufactured by Trent miniatures and available unpainted from the 'North Star' website http://www.northstarfigures.com/

General Guillaume-Marie-Anne Brune.

These 28mm French Revolutionary miniatures are available unpainted from www.brigadegames.com

The 24 figure battalion will form 1 battalion of 3 in a demi-brigade, they all have similar flags for the Italian and Egyptian campaigns. I am currently working on a handpainted flag on metal foil, I will add pictures when they're available.

Also a Trent miniatures Napoleon Bonaparte as Consul on the Italian campaign, Picture to follow.

Cheerio for now.
