25mm British Napoleonic Army Part 6

25mm British Napoleonic Army Part 6
Ok I'm going back 55 or so years when I started wargaming after I have been to the library and got out Donald Featherston's book War Games  .Now I had a book with rules in it so started  using my Airfix ACW figures . Looking for more to do painted up Airfix Napoleonic Scots . Off down to the local model shop and got some more paint .Man behind the counter what you want it for? to pain my Napoleonic figures I said .We now stock Hinchliffe figures he said want to have a look ?
There nice shiny I have to have them . Well as wargames you now what comes next .
Having painted most of them 50 plus years a good most would not be up to the scratch you would paint to day but they still move ok in a wargames table .
Most figures are Hinchliffe with Minifigs one regiment  of foot is Prince August.
All but one Regiment had been paint by my shelf but the Regiment of Royal Marines was Andy's and I was give them by his wife after he past a way back in the 70s
I have replaced all the Flags as the old ones have faded .
