Hi team
I have an abundance of FRONT RANK French Middle Guard miniatures and I'm wondering what other units I could paint them as.
Any suggestions?
Cheers

Could use them as grenadiers or Voltigeurs, probably need to buy more front frank fusiliers to fit in with them though. |

Leger, Spanish Guard Fusiliers, Etranger regiments, to name a few. |

Interesting option. What did they look like? |

Maybe he's referring to the Velites of Turin and Florence:

Hi
Yes I suspect it's the Velites.
The only 'Guards Du Honour' I'm aware of in French or Italian service were the two mounted Regiments,(1 Italian 'Dragoon like' and one French Hussar like ) |
