Just a couple of photos of my Campaign Miniatures French light infantry. These figures have a lot of interesting poses and came with very little flash. Also have nice solid bayonets, which is always a bonus.
When I painted my first Napoleonic's 25mm was 25mm and 15mm, well that was always liable to scale creep. I mean 15mm is pretty small. So maybe in this mixed up world 1815 didn't mark the end and perhaps we can imagine another 3 years of campaigning (okay another 3 years of needless suffering for the people of Europe, but hey, these are 15mm metal figures, they can take it).

Lithuanian Tartars
Have just finished on my Boki Lithuanian Tartars. I really like the figures from Sho. They have great character and details. These figures need a little pinching in to get them on some Wargames bases comfortably (ankles and lance hand need squeezing in a bit depending on your base size). Their numbers mean that for most Wargames you probably don’t need that many figures, but I’m building for 1818 and anything is possible!! The lance Pennents are from Essex miniatures, they will sell on request the lances so you can drill and stick them on the end of cut down paperclip or brass rod, I use a 0.8mm drill bit and brass rod.
Here are the first batch of lancers. Difficult to determine the uniforms as they seemed to have a lot of variants.
