The conversions on some of these come from spares with the Perry British and French plastic box set.

The command figures come from their Honoverian Light Field Battalion. Code BH15. I know these are not really correct for the 95th but they will do until the Perry's bring out their metal command figures.

Excellent photography again SW!

Looks like there is a lot of shouting going on. Splendid!
Having seen the two riflemen on the sprue 'in the flesh' at last - they do look rather nice and fit together a treat. I may find it harder to resist Napoleonics once the plastic Highlanders arrive...

Excellent conversion work and painting!

What Rules set have you based them for?

Cheers,

Thanks chaps. Very Happy

I don't know if I should mention other rule sets on this forum Wink

but I have too many other projects on the go to paint up enough 28mm figures for General de Brigade.
I only plan on painting up enough figures for a large skirmish game so will probably go with 'Sharps Practice' by the too fat lardies or use an adaption of Legends of the Old West rules. Embarassed

They look very nice and you really captured some drama. 8) I like your scenary and background. Smile

Beautiful work, Pat. Lovely conversions, too. Will you be adding the new/forthcoming Perry metal figures?

Brilliant.

Could be a Sharpe senario.

These look fantastic - the plastic figures available are absolutely superb. Great job and sensational settings!

Thanks once again for the feedback chaps. Very Happy

Giles, I will definitely be getting the Perry metals for these when they come out. The charging officer is one of the best looking figures I have seen Shocked

and would have to buy and paint even if I didn't do Naps.

I really love the conversions but what really stands out is the terrain. There is always the dilemma between creating a realistic diorama and the practicalities of wargaming terrain. You have struck the happy medium. Well done.

Hi ho Silver! Absolutely tremendous. Not sure what make(s) of minis are in there in terms of the 95th. Surely they're not all Perry's! Have you checked out Alban Miniatures? From what i've seen they could fit in well with these chaps.
Anyhow just wanted to say SPLENDID, as usual Laughing

If ever you run out of space for your collection of either figures or gaming tables please get in touch Whistler - will happily take out a second mortgage!!!!

Thanks chaps.
BK, The 95th are all Perry's, 5 x metal and 8 x plastic. May well include a few Alban as more recruits reach the front. Wink

Enjoy your posts also, keep them coming.
