One of the Guard that like the most. (smile). Perry of course.
In my wargames they fought and they fought hard!. Amicalement Armand |

I have a squadron of them attached to my Grenadiers a Cheval. Connoisseur miniatures from way back. They also have always fought well. Never lost a fight. link |

I am just in seventh heaven over this. Gringos and Perrys are suddenly both promising these overnight! Maybe we will even get a command set. I certainly never thought we would see them in the Royalist style helmet of 1814-15 as well as the famous bearskins. Brian, your figures are superb. I just love the grenadiers in cloaks as well. I am currently working on producing cavalry in the later sleeved cloak. Pale blue though???? Dark Blue I thought, possibly even with some aurore lace? |

Give me a break:) It was the closest humbrol colour to the Osprey illustration I could buy. |

Perfect!! Now, we want empress dragoons and horse grenadiers in full dress. |

Glad you like them my friend!. (smile) Amicalement Armand |

oh yes. Post this over and over again
.. Not the Hobbits in the surtout. I am convinced the Dragoons in 1815 wore the coat with white lapels. The Grenadiers just look better that way. |

In 1815 also the grenadiers did wear still their old Imperial uniform and not the "Royal" one. So that means a coat with lapels. I disagree on the look however and find the surtout a most attractive looking dress. |

"Those" being…? [Shame the title was never corrected] Not Gendarmerie d'elite I take it… |

The three above are not Gendarmes d'Elite. However you spell that…. Gendarmes yes, but not La Garde. |
SHaT1984 | 15 May 2020 2:27 p.m. PST |
>>Gendarmes yes, but not La Garde. Well, thats what I stated. Meaning, not the 'Elite Paris' Legion of the Gendarmerie de france. Indirectly questioning, why post it here? On an old mislabelled thread. The archivist and purist in me is irked… |
