Back in 2012 I was introduced to Commands & Colors Napoleonics and started a project to build 6mm armies for the game. These days I paint Napoleonics in 40mm scale, but thought I would share a few images from back then, all now sold on. I used Baccus figures on mdf bases. In homage to those tiny chaps, here are some of the units. Hope you like them,
Lee.

Very nice. I agree, you should have kept them. |

From 6mm to 40mm!! That's quite a jump … |

I am going the opposite direction – from 28mm to 6mm Those are very nice figs! |

And I wish that you had sold them to me! Very nice work! |

Thanks for the comments, hopefully they are all still in regular use, the new owner was very pleased with them. What I forgot to add was that before I sold them I actually rebased them all on smaller bases so that I could use them either on the textured board or the actual C&C game board. Quite a job it was but worth it. I added a Russian army too, that was in 2013 before they went on ebay! I do tend to get fed up with projects once they reach a certain point but I do kind of regret selling this lot, still live and learn as they say :) Royal Marine: Yes a big step from 6mm to 40mm I agree, but infact there were several projects in between from 15mm to 28mm ……and they all got sold off too. The 40mm's are keepers though, cost me an arm and a leg! Few more pics, all baccus of course.

Oh, that's terrible! Can I ask… how much did you sell them for? That's a fabulous looking collection… |

Hi Lord Ashram – I can't recall now as it was quite a few years ago now, but probably not as much as they were worth in terms of time invested, but that's ebay for you :) I used to follow your blog regularly, I must check it out again. Lee. |
