French 55th Line Regiment

Another one done, this time the 55th Ligne, made up with what I have left of the Foundry march attack figures and a few sundry others that weren't going to find a home elsewhere:


















These included a few more "under fire" figures which provide some nice variety:


















I have also used grenadiers in caps, which are among my favourite Foundry Napoleonic figures:


















The 55th regiment were part of Werle's brigade at Albuera, of which I have completed two of the three battalions and topped them off with the usual GMB flag:


















That's seven regiments comprised of fourteen twenty-figure battalions completed this year, with another three regiments nearing completion.


















In spite of wavering a little around the halfway mark I'm nearly there with them now and so will get them finished before I move on to something new, which will hopefully be some Empress ECW figures I have prepared and which now have a thin layer of dust starting to appear upon them.
