The latest two battalions completed are a battalion comprised of Foot Guard detachments and the 23rd Royal Welsh (or Welch for the purists) fusiliers:
The Guards battalion is the largest British unit I'll do for this project, comprised of 30 figures. I knew that they didn't take their colours with them as they were comprised of detachments from the 1st, 2nd and 3rd regiments of Guards, but mistakenly thought the Perrys had included a couple of standard bearers in their command pack so I now have a spare set of GMB flags I'll never use. Never mind.
The reason this unit is so large is because I included a company of grenadiers:
