  1. Andreas he has used 2 lego tires as skin hats. I think they are the smallest ones. Voltigeur
  2. Bonaparte, You could be living in the French speaking part 8-| . Ofcourse I have been to Waterloo Ive been there 4 times now the first time as a Dutch-Infantry line Drummer and after 2nd and 3rd time as Fuselier of the Dutch Line and the last time as a KGL Rifleman. The Sharpe series look nice but they are in some ways rubish. The South Essex, wich is the core army in the serie, never existed. The Battles are sad 20 against 20 that is rubbish. Ther stories are nice the uniforms are good but its not always historical correct. This is a nice gallery which can help you designing uniforms http://digitalgallery.nypl.org/nypldigital...&level=2&tword= The pictures are coming soon, I need the perfect place to take the pictures beacuse of the light. Regards Voltigeur
  3. Bonaparte you are making me very jealous for I am a napoleonic re-enactor and also a huge Lego fan. You are doing a good job. I must say some things the French drumband you got are nice but they are nicer for the English army. The french drumbands were either green or just the colours of the regular infantrymen. The golden eagles and colours look nice but the French had combined standards, the golden eagles were on top of the flag poles. Here I got some picture you could use for your Voltigeurs, Tirailleurs or Chasseurs. Please keep in mind that the epaulettes of Voltigeurs and Chasseurs were always green. You made an army for Jena but the British wreent there. The opposing army of Napoleon consisted out of Sachsen and Prussians. Prussians in 1806 were uniformed in blue uniforms and the Sachsen in white with coloured 2nd colours. I must tell you that 2 weeks ago I was part of a 3000 persons re-enactment of the battle at Jena. There are some nice pictures at www.nanweb.org teh english site does not contain the pictures but the Dutch one does. I hope you can read some Dutch words. I myself made some lego figs of French Cuirassiers(4) and 95th rifles(only 1). I will make some pictures and post those later. Regards, Voltigeur
