Charlet's Brigade

I've been hard at work on my Waterloo project and have produced three battalions of French infantry for Charlet's Brigade, which is shown advancing north just to the east of La Haye Sainte.

The figures are a mix of plastic and metal. The rear battalion is almost all by an old make called RSM. The lead battalions are by Art Miniaturen, NapoleoN, Schilling and various plastics. There is also a Zvezda/Hat horse battery. They are in the standard six company French battalion organisation with four fusilier, one grenadier and one voltigeur company each of 100 men. In all there are some 2,000 figures. You have to imagine that La Haye Sainte is to their left and the sandpit is to their front.





















Hope you enjoy. More here on my blog: http://generalpicton.blogspot.com

Beautiful work as always. I’ve spent the past 15 minutes viewing the images, and r he detail makes these scenes so believable. Great work to you and your team.

Thanks Asher!

Re: Charlet's Brigade

Fantastic work on a grand scale. Quite how you have managed to produce three whole battalions on a 1:1 scale in such a relatively short time leaves me in awe.

The older RSM figures seem to have stood the test of time well, and the combination of sensible marching or advancing poses reflects that these were produced originally with the wargamer in mind. Needless to say, the Art Miniaturen and other figures are superb.
