227 - Nap. Bavarian Infantry in attack



... just realized, that the race for the news is seriously on...

[marc zijp]

Had the same feeling

[Bluefalchion]

Those Bavarians look like they are advancing slowly. Attacking? Not so sure...

[Bessiere]

Great sculpts but I too question the poses. Kind of a strolling attack? Like we're not in a hurry to get to the enemy lines. Sure, your unit can go ahead of us we don't mind.

[Erich von Manstein]

More WSS cavalry related masters.

[Zed1]

No - it's infanty *in advance*. Due to the fact that running exhausts an infantryman pretty quick and that the formation itself should be kept up as long as possible, a full charge would have been ordered only after reaching short distance to the enemy line.

[Erich von Manstein]

And more WSS.

[Peter]

Those Bavarians are on my wish list!

Maybe further figures for 227 - Nap. Bavarian Infantry in attack or in advance, or moving forward, or... you name it... .

[Bessiere]

Whatever they get named they will be the core of my future Bavarian army to the tune of several boxes. I think the lower leg is a tad short on these which is a vast improvement over the short arms of the Imperial guard.

[marc zijp]

Good advancing figures. Wish they made French grenadiers too (and Russians etc.).
I’m still pretty sure those advancing French grenadiers were announced once?

[Erich von Manstein]

Further WWII AT-Finns? Could be an attempt to sculpt the 20mm Madsen M40 AT-gun in 1/72?

[Erich von Manstein]

More WSS cavalry.

[Bessiere]

I have to buy a set of those just to have a mounted drummer for conversion. I can find excuses to buy almost any set, just practicing to tell the wife why I bought them. Funny because just last night I was having dreams of making a mounted band for the dragoons imperiale de la garde. I don't recall ever seeing anyone create one before, at least not in 1/72 scale.

Brilliant, the kettledrummer just what I want. he looks Ideal for lots of periods with some simple head swaps

It just occurred to me that hopefully these figures won't suffer from what many other mounted Strelets units do; they don't fit. We've all had a set where you push the figure down in the saddle and they shoot about 10 feet across the room.

Hi Bessiere, here's my Band:

Hmm, that didn't work:
