On the Road to Austerlitz: A 6mm Early Napoleonics Project
The Brigade Complete
Here’s the completed Brigade. I went for my universal Dark Brown, Light Brown Drybrush and Bright Green Flock that I use for everything from 40K to Historical.
Let me know if you like or don’t like this set up.
Here’s what I’ve got to do
Austrian Cuirassiers
Austrian Infantry Brigade
Austrian Infantry Brigade
Austrian Infantry Brigade
Grenzer Brigade
Austrian Lancer/Hussar Brigade
Austrian Horse Artillery
I found Woodlands Scenics Fine Sand is a perfect universal basing sand. 
I didn't bother trying to base in-between the strips, the ground is going to be dark and the men are so close together that it won't matter. An Artistic man might say they're trying to give the hint of a shadow but I am not that man.
I didn't want to overload the base with Officers, one giving the rear Colonel a Message and the brigade Commander leading the brigade was enough for me. 
Standard Coat of Dark brown
It's starting to take shape, the next step is a light brown drybrush but I do it almost simultaneously with the flocking so I didn't take a picture.
Some Close Ups. The Yellow really stands out
Jagers covering the Brigade
It might not show up but the Officers have been painted in Grey since they're in the Austrian Grey Greatcoat.

Looks great. Only another 20 or 30 to go
Haha I wish, there are maybe 20-30 Russians then all the French but one thing at a time. By the end of next week I plan on having all the Austrians done.
Great project really enjoying. Planning on starting a War of 1812 project myself although I’m torn between that and the Zulu war either way it’ll be baccus6mm
Sounds great. I guess it depends on whether you’d like to paint uniforms or cowhide shields. Keep me posted on what you decide.
If you go for the latter, Little Wars TV did a video tutorial on painting up 6mm zulus.
I know the one you mean thanks for the heads up. That’s exactly the video that got me thinking oow I could put a Zulu war project together. It really is between napoleonic uniforms or cowhide shields in my mind right now, I put a preorder in on the Warlord Epic battle set but had a think and cancelled as want to stay 6mm which I find just so much easier to game and store in the long run. Thanks again ?
