Baden - 1809

 The Army of Baden took part in a number of Napoleon's campaigns.  In 1809 the troops wore a Raupenhelm helmet and blue coats.  Officers wore Bicornes rather than the helmet.  I used Austrian line in Raupenhelm with a French officer in Bicorne for the officer.  

You can't see it on the photos, but Baden troops had a yellow and red fringe below the comb and skull parts of the helmet, so I painted a minuscule stripe of orange to represent this.
