This is an area not currently covered but has so much potential and expansion into other aspects of 1848-1849…I would welcome hearing from anyone building armies for this period? |

1848 is the year of the revolutions: link You are quite right that this moment in time is filled with possibilities – there are at least 15 revolution attempts ! Perhaps this would need to be some kind of joint activity by a group of people. And of course Harry Flashman was in Germany right in the middle of it, together with Lola Montez… |

I have a semi-sleeping project for the siege of Rome 1849, the assault on Villa Corsini. A lot of conversions needed! |

There are 15mm figures out there for 1848, but I have not seen anything in 28mm. The closest was a picture or two of a clever conversion someone had done to turn Perry Christino infantry into Imperial Austrians. |

Irregular do a Risorgimento range. |

Mirliton offers 25/28mm figures for 1854-1866. Perhaps a possible use ? link |

Regretfully not one of Irregulars better ranges, Mirliton are nice figs but nearer 25mm and csnnot be used |

Will look at some Hungarians in 28mm |
