British 1799 army in Holland
Posted: Tue Jan 12, 2016 12:08 pm
I am slowly building a British army for the campaign in Holland in 1799, fighting French and Dutch troops.
Not the most glorious episode in British history but found some great figures from Trent miniatures [Irish militia] and it is good to do something different.
So far painted 5 battalions of line infantry in Bicorns [24figures each] and one squadron of heavy dragoons[Front rank].
Waiting on some light infantry in round hats with crest, looks a bit like a tirliton. [not sure of the spelling] Also some light Dragoons in Tirliton.
Aiming to do 8 battalions and 4 squadrons plus some artillery.
