I have mixed Trent, Eureka, Foundry, Brigade Games, Hinchliffe, Dixon Miniatures, Perry & odds I can't recall right now. They look fine on the tabletop. Have a look at the FRW collection on my blog ~

I think you should post pictures of your progress, as I was always tempted by the early Revolutionary period. And I can do it vicariously through you. I suppose on the bright side, it wouldn't be red coats.

Oh, and I would have thought the Victrix 1804 French could have been used for earlier armies?

Removing the greatcoat rolls from on top of the packs would pretty much do it, I would have thought.

Unless you do the Grand old Duke of York, or the British and Russians in holland in 1799 or 1800. Or the French invasion of Hannover.

It's just that currently I have 28mm for the 45 (red coats mandatory), AWI (red coats mandatory), and Peninsular War (red coats mandatory). Revolutionary Wars red coats are NOT mandatory.

It's a lot of blue, maybe you could hire Andy as a consultant.

And this is how new projects start, a chance remark, a chance find. Ooh, and a few enablers. You’re all bad people.
I honestly thought I’d sold them at the time of the big move, I certainly sold the books - I recall this one as particularly good:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/173 ... _1789_1802

But the Trent figures are nice, and it’s only a small project. Isn’t it.

Better sort out a few photos today. Sorry Fred :evilgrin:

And unfortunately the Paddy Grffiths one is OOP so you are now paying a premium for 2nd hand copies. (In any case, why do I care, I don't need any new projects...) ha!
