It's going to be a steady process as there is going to be lots of small details to be done to a fair amount of models, starting with the handgunners who will be my line infantry. Firstly, every barrel will be smoothed down and any cartridges / wraps around the rifles will be removed so I can keep all of the guns uniform as seen below!
As you can see in comparison to the rifle I've yet to smooth down, it seems a lot more "Napoleonic". The canisters were also removed after this photograph and I added cuffs to the boots and arms too, oo-err!
That's pretty much how they sit right now, I do have plans to add some backpacks and was contemplating head swaps but I didn't want to take too much of the heroic warhammer feel from these guys as I love the models to begin with, I must say!
As stated above I was hoping to add backpacks and possibly head swap some models to get a nice mix of The Empire / Napoleonic style and so have treated myself to a little something!
I can't help but love the uniform of the Russian line infantry and am very tempted to do my paint scheme to this style as well so it made sense to use some actual Russian Line Infantry from Black Powder to spice things up a bit!
So here we go! I've not actually made a lot of use of the box as I'm not a fan of how static they look when compared to games workshops handgunners but the backpacks looked too great to turn down!
