Well they survived the curse of newly painted units.
I wanted to give some distinction between the Royalist and Republican units so opted for the White uniforms which was prescribed for colonial infantry.
The first group were rushed through to provide support for the French at Mahon, the second group took a little longer.
These are again from Trent Miniatures Caribbean range.
They are from the Royal-Etranger Regt pack which were French in the service of the British in the Caribbean Wars but give me some additional variation to the French forces.

The white uniforms really stand out and make a nice change.
ReplyDeleteThanks Steve, they do make quite a change.

Great looking troops. The white looks excellent.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ray.
DeleteThey are very nice figures Stu, and like Napoleon in Egypt or Wellington in India, this period and theatre of battle allow a great deal of latitude in uniforms, unusual units etc
ReplyDeleteNot sure why I always end up in these odd periods, but it is fun :-)
