Title: French Infantry 1860 - Heinrichsen 40mm
Post by: Corporal_Trim on April 28, 2013, 12:36:25 PM

Just finished this unit of French 2nd Empire infantry designed in antique style. The Heinrichsen list has them issued in 1860.  They are nominally 40mm but actually on the smallish side. I painted them in acrylics and gloss coated, aiming for more of a toy soldier look with these.

They do have a certain charm to them.  These look great!

Thank you, Eric.  I also got the Battle of Weissenburg (Wissembourg) set recently.  Unusually for Heinrichsen, en demi ronde bosse.  I like it, easy to paint.  ;)
