My inspection parade of all the armies in my wargaming collection continues with French cavalry of the mid-eighteenth century. They're certainly colourful en masse!

These 28mm figures were all painted in the very early 2000s, so represent my level of painting at the time. But despite the fairly crude shading and detail, they do look really good on the table, and have in fact stood the test of time quite well.

As with most of my armies, the basing hasn't been done to align to any particular rules. I work the other way round – I adapt rules to suit my basing!

Here are some sample pics from the above link
