Hello There! Here is the latest addition to the Napoleonic Austrians. He is in the 42nd regiment and the facing colours are described as just 'Orange' in my copy of Rawkins. This is a figure from the Wargames Foundry range which provides a pack with figures in different positions.
This figure is painted as per the feature I had published in WSS magazine, here.
The accompanying battalion is almost completed and is part of 1st Armeekorps Vogelsang Division, Henneberg Brigade. This is part of the forces in the order of battle at Eckmuhl. I have used 'Armies on the Danube 1809' written by Scott Bowden and Charles Tarbox.
This division gives a wide variety of facing colours for the units in it and also includes landwehr as well. Wargames supplies now have a decent choice of these troops so making sourcing these landwehr easier to obtain.
Nicely done. I have to smile at the division name. Vogelsang means Bird Song.
