I couldn't wait to get started on Napoleonics and decided to go with my Austrian Forces. I chose the 4th Austrian Infantry Regiment, Hoch und Deutschmeister from Lower Austria. Of note Austrian regiments were named after their Colonel.
I chose this regiment as the blue uniform trim looks great and the Perry Miniatures Box Set comes with a flag for them. I haven't done much research into the period however am learning each time I commit to the hobby.
It was fun to paint and I shall be doing lots of batch painting to get these on the table. I wanted to achieve a nice table top standard and didn't want to invest too much time. I think I will paint 4-6 models at a time. Anything more than that and I get bored. If I generate some interest I will post a how to guide.

Great work, you should write a little paint guide for them, please :)
ReplyDeleteThank you kindly. I think once I master painting them efficiently yet maintaining a solid look I should see to this!
