OK, so after two years I've finally given in to having a section of the FORUM specifically set up to discuss painting techniques, display examples, show your latest projects and chat about this vital part of the hobby. Manufacturers please feel free to post up your sculpts, ask questions about what the gamers are after and generally promote your work.. no charge! Painters, please also feel free to post up your work for comment and critique. I can't promise the unreserved adulation characteristic of some other fora but I would hope you'd get constructive and measured comment!

Don't talk you into this - it is not true...not allways
Remember my GNW Leib Regiment?

They were still w e t in their pants....errr....w e t in their paints... when
"...In the second run the Saxons steamrollered through the centre giving Glory Hunting Gunter a moment of joy when the Guards went down to his buff coated Leib Cuirassiers."

Only a single regiment from this division has seen action so far, but I can't wait to get them all into action
Anyway, next up:
1er régiment de chevau-legers lanciers were formed by Imperial decree on 18 June 1811 from 1er régiment de dragons, then stationed in Iberia. It joined five other dragoon regiments that converted to lancers, along with two existing lancer regiments from the Vistula Legion and 30e régiment de chasseurs á cheval (formerly the Hamburg Dragoons).
More on their history and further photos can be found here:

Wonderfull lights!
Lets just hope the pointed sticks(of steel) can make up for the lack of armor.
