Love them. As you say, Poles to add but not too many of them alas. Even fewer Mamelukes and they were in very dull rig anyway for 1815. Nice to see the Gendarmes d'Elite got a look in. |

Very nice! Love the "big brothers" – the Gendarmes d'Elite! |

Went back again. The Perry Guard Dragoons are not my favourites in their range, but I do not know anyone else who does them better in 28mm. (Now in 18mm….that is so different). You have made a great job of them. The leopard skin turbans I do like. Chasseurs a Cheval. May not be of any interest but, odd thing, that top patch on the colpack is black. The dangly bag thing, that was indeed red, was folded up and a black leather cover protected it. Looks better your way though! |

Looks better your way though! I just assumed it was red,… Meh, I'll keep it red for now and redo it later on probably. Even fewer Mamelukes and they were in very dull rig anyway for 1815. Nice to see the Gendarmes d'Elite got a look in. I do have 4 Marmelukes from Gringo 40 to add but I've not got around to them just yet. I have also obtained from the Perry's the Young Guard 'Scout' squadrons. Cheers |

Be very careful. If you once drift beyond 1815 with the Scouts, you are doomed and hooked. Next comes Berg lancers, Tartars, Gardes D'Honneur (which we are promised shortly) even the Krakus! No end to it. |

I already have a rather large collection,… I'm afraid the damage has already been done |
