Continentals
These are Old Glory Continental infantry and they are alot better than their AWI French that I painted in the 90's. For a start the metal is not as soft which means less broken bayonets and less chance of breaking at the ankles. On a pedantic note the sergeant should only have an epulette on the right shoulder rather than on both. They are based on 30mm x 20mm bases in pairs and 15mm x 20mm singles. This way I can use them for WRG and Sharp Practice and if I get enthusiastic (doubtful) and rebase the rest of my French - American and also my British in this way it would be easier to use them for British Grenadier or Blackpowder.
This is the third unit I have done since Christmas one for me two for the Heir (maybe I should charge him).

No these are the old OGs, I think they thave strenghtened the metal since the 90's.
Sadly I wont be at Cancon this year, family issues that mean I will be in Sydney instead. Hope to be at the next Bring and Buy starting to go though books and figures already.
Cheers
