Evening all, more work  on the table today  -  I  decided to  make a Captain from the Luneburg company,  who had advanced with   couple of Hundread  troops  in line formation from the British ranks   to  repel  the  54/55th, howerver  they did not see  the FRench troop  of seceral Hundread Cuirassiers, who  just rode into and over them   and only a handfull  were left.

Evening all,   I decided  after  checking more research on the battle -  I am going to paint a few of my KGL  into  Hanovarian  Luneburg  regiement, as they where sent down  on the rear  face of the farm  and ran into about 900  Cuirassiers, and only a handfull survived.

Yep, they were the ones sent down in line by Silly Billy (Crown Prince of Orange).

Apparently, because he'd agreed to ally himself and his Dutch and Belgian troops to Wellington, he demanded some veteran Regiments to command and was given these Hanoverians. 

 

The ranks must be swelling now OC!

Anticipating another glimpse of the battleground with  even more troops on😉

Stunning work, going to be so impressive  when complete, if this can ever be said to be finished, there is always more that can be added

I think you've nailed the trouser color. It's inline with the color used by the Union Army during the American Civil War.👍

The  bulk of them at the back are my 54/55th  French Ligne, and those in front are a mix of  - a few injured French  and  5th line  KGL,   the  rest of my 2nd  KGL  and  Lunburg  regiment  have been primed  but no colour  on them yet.

Thought I would  explain  my paint  system  with my French  figures  that suites me  - 

 

After priming I paint the faces and hands  first, then  comes the  straps,   I then  paint the  Off  White  Habi Vests and  turn backs,   then  because  of me mixing up  a  shade of Off White  - I paint their trousers,   I then mix  some different shades  of  Off  White,  Buff  or even Brown  for their  trousers,   I then  paint their  jackets  in the Dark Blue,   this is followed  by thier facings  then  Brass  buttons,  Shako details,  Back Pack,  Sword and  details,  I then  paint their  socks  and shoe  details.

After  leaving to dry  I follow up with a Dark Earth wash for the face and hands, and a Dark Wash  all over the  torso/legs  (removing in areas I want clean),  I then add some  Dark Earth wash around the ankles  and  finish off with a dry brush Dust  around the  ankles.
