French Napoleonic Miniatures, 1792–1815

French hussars of the Napoleonic Wars. The miniatures are conversions of 1:72 scale Revell French Chasseurs à Cheval de la Garde Impériale, which have had their fur caps replaced by shakos taken from Airfix French infantry. The hussars are mounted on 3" x 3" cavalry brigade stands compatible with the Volley & Bayonet game system.
