Looking to put together something a bit different for Sharpe Practice 2. As my wife is Greek and I've recently read about the British Army having a Greek force in the Adriatic campaign around 1810-2 that sounded perfect. But the uniforms are very different – see the picture here
link Does any make anything similar in 28mm (or 15mm) ?? Perhaps figs from the Greeks Wars of Independence (1821) ? |

Cool idea, SP2 is perfect for all those weird and wonderful units that were around for a short period or as extras to the greater armies. I'm building a light skirmisher unit from bits and bobs that depict bosnian types with that hussar look to their uniform.
Nice thing is a light unit is only 6 strong so very do able. Good luck defending the coffee shop Colonel:) |

Thanks for the Steve Barber tip they definitely look like some I can use. I agree that SP2 is just the right force size to try something a bit quirky & colourful in the Nappy era – those Bosnians look great! |

In 15mm way back when I used Albanian Mercenary figures for the two British-raised Greek Regiments. I bought them from Scotia but I can't remember the brand name (Jacobite?) |
