From SanderS - Some German Napoleonics (176 points)

Hoi! So after last week's point-bomb I am back to a more sedate painting schedule and have two units of Napoleon's German Allies for you all. All figures are HäT figures apart from two of the guns which are done by Revell.

The first entry are some Württemberg light infantry, in the light blue facings, and foot chasseurs in black facings, of the Mid-Napoleonic period.   

Next up is my battery of Bavarian field artillery. I combined the figures of 4 sprues to get enough crewmen. The guns in the box were a bit on the small and simple side, so I replaced them with the current ones. I like these best of the two by the way!

Now looking back I can state that I like painting Bavarians but am less happy with the Württembergers. I bought them thinking this was a nice way to fill out my French army, without the need to paint more boring blue-coats. Yet I do not feel any attachment to them at all. So this brings me up to 38 foot figures and 3 guns, bringing in some 176 points if I am not mistaken.

Cheers Sander

Great work Sander.  I despise painting artillery of any sort in any scale, so I am always impressed when someone cranks out some artillery, particularly for Napoleonics. It is always nice to see some 1/72 Napoleonic troops, particularly from nations such as  Württemberger and Bavaria - important states, but ones often playing second fiddle in our collections (and mine is no exception).  

That is indeed another 176 points - well done!
