Napoleonic British Foot Artillery

My first diorama, done up a few years ago with A Call to Arms 1/32 scale figures. It's kind of wonky that they sell 12 figures in four poses in one set and the cannon by itself in anotherTongue Tied

I like this vignette. You did a good job. It feels like this artillery crew is "in action". Painting Napoleonic figures has to be difficult with all their pageantry. I've never had the cajones to try it. You should put a name plaque on the base to define what is happening. Like 12th British artillery regiment at Waterloo or something like that. Just my opinion.

Thanks! These guys are probably the most difficult figures I've done from the period due to the intricate patterns on the front of the jacket and cuffs. Had to do a lot of re-painting on those parts!
