BN 213 British Light Dragoon in Tarleton



My first Napoleonics completed in a while, and the picture was not helped by needing to use the flash.

I am hopeful of eventually being able to field three regiments of these light dragoons and two of their heavy counterparts in bicornes. These will then provide the cavalry element for my early war British. I have a division's worth of line infantry in stovepipe shakos and at least a division's worth of light infantry and rifles. Just need to properly organise my French Line into pre Bardin and post Bardin divisions.

Reinforcements


Thanks to Paul in Oz for a number of reinforcements - first, and most marvellously, 6BN 213 British Light Dragoons in tarleton helmets - top of my list of wanted figures - if anyone has any BN 206 Heavy Dragoons in cocked hat they want to send me that would be wonderful too! I know have 6 battalions of British infantry in stovepipe shakos so having some of the earlier British cavalry gives me an reasonably sized accurate British early war/Peninsular force.

Only marginally less marvellous are 16 marching Bavarians plus officer, which will bring my Bavarians up to full Regimental (brigade) strength. I know I had an idea of painting up a spare Prussian adc as a Bavarian general, I will have to have another look at Knotel to see if this is feasible.

Equally valuable are some Russian gunners and three very nice pairs of French artillery horses. All are very valuable items in bringing some of my national contingents up to strength and I am very grateful to Paul.

I have also added the picture to the previous post for BN 213.

FN 371 Napoleon and his Marshals: Aide de Camp


FN 362 Napoleon and his Marshals, Personality Figures: General Baraguay d'Hilliers


FN 361 Napoleon and his Marshals, Personality Figures: General Nansouty



The second picture of this figure has been very nicely painted, but in a way which disguises its identity as the personality figure for Nansouty. The blue general's coat and red sash have been painted over the cuirass which formed part of the Guirassier General figure's dress.

FN 360 Napoleon and his Marshals, Personality Figures: General Dorsenne


FN 359 Napoleon and his Marshals, Personality Figures: General Lasalle


FN 358 Napoleon and his Marshals, Personality Figures: General Junot


FN 357 Napoleon and his Marshals, Personality Figures: Marshal Soult

This figure was transposed with that for Bessieres. When I can find the original photo I will remove or correct the caption - this figure is, however, Soult.

FN 356 Napoleon and his Marshals, Personality Figures: Marshal Massena


FN 355 Napoleon and his Marshals, Personality Figures: Marshal Davout


FN 354 Napoleon and his Marshals, Personality Figures: Marshal Ney
