Grand old Duke of York - British in Flanders 1793-95

Having bought the "Neither up nor down" book that covers the British involvement in Flanders, 1793-95, I started the forces needed.  In the scale I usually work in this will be 6 bases of infantry, 6 of cavalry, 2 command stands.  

In March I posted from the workbench in progress here and here are the finished troops so far - 3 units of line infantry, 2 heavy cavalry, the Duke of York himself to lead (astray?) the British troops.  


British Army


Duke of York (white Horse)



Heavy Cav (1st Dragoon Guards & 6th Inniskilling Dragoon Guards)




The Line Infantry 14th, 37th, 53rd



The figures are Baccus AWI British infantry (with French Officer & standard bearers), Napoleonic British cavalry and Generals (with suitable plumes).  Painting white/buff belts over red was a bit of a pain, but not as bad as I initially thought.  

Enjoy!
