Thanks for puting up some of my work on here woody. Ive ordered some of your Grenadier Bearskin hats from shapeways. Cant wait to get them so i can finish the Horse Grenadiers of the imperial guard which im making.

I think its interesting that the new imperial guard uniforms in red look alot like the swiss soldiers uniforms from 1812 who fought with Napoleon in his Russian campaign. Especially as they have blue facings on the coats whereas the British had white. Im going to use them for this purpose in a moc im working on of the Battle of Borodino

These are some of the custom French infantry ive been making. You can find more on my mocpages site I wanted to make a few of the men in greatcoats and winter campaign uniform. Visit My Website

The guy with the beard and axe is a sapper. They were the french armies answer to smashing down gates and obstacles on the battlefield. They were picked from the bravest men and had to grow a big beard(a strange requirement), carried an axe and wore an apron. They were normally seen marching close to the Eagle standards.

Hey Hornbricker I have been using these Dark Blue torsos on my Napoleonic troops for my latest creations. Im actually using the airline pilot torsos and just applying decals.
