[9thHussar]

Hi

just painted three lots from the Armies in Plastic Napoleonic French Army sets (pre 1812/13 era)

Neuchatel Battalion in yellow coatees, Swiss 1st Regt in red coatees and Irish Regt in green coatees.

I am currently working on the Isembourg Regt which has a sky blue uniform

See links below

And I thought that it was just French Hussars that had all the colours!

Nice Job Dave! You wouldn't happen to know how many battalions of each partook in the Wars or in what theaters? I suppose I could not be lazy and look it up myself though,

Hi
they were quite involved across the period. I know that the Irish unit were at Walcheren in 1809 fighting the British. I would have to look up the others. I think most of the French "etranger" foreign regiments took part in the Russian Campaign 1812 too.

Nicely done! The AIP French are one of their best sculpted sets. This set was made with the 10 figures per set. Now they seem to be sticking with 8 per. I wish AIP would put out an accompanying set of French fusiliers and just one set of Napoleonic cavalry. A generic set of hussars or heavy cavalry would be nice, 5 figs per set please.

Hi - yes it would be ideal - and they could release in different colours to represent different units/regiments
