The Lost Voltigeur

Things have statrted to get busy again with the school year about to start, those of you in education will understand what I mean, so production has fallen off. However, I was able to get a few more Prussian Regiments done. Hopefully by the fall I can have a small game  against the French. 

  I have always been fascinated by the Prussian Army of 1806. Something about those sharp uniforms and the ranks of Prussian infantry fighting in 1806 like it was 1756 and being out manuvered by the modern French revolutionary infantry. Actually when I started seriously reading about the period I discovered that the Prussians often did very well and the campaign is more interesting than it looks at first. But yes just something about this army I have been building it for years in 6mm, 10mm and recently, 18mm. These are some of the regiments that will be added to the force. The figures are from the fantastic AB line and my painting does not do them justice.
