Prussian line infantry

First unit finished, part way through another one (though slightly distracted by painting some 42mm Prussian 1897 figures).
Think helmet looks bare - should have added a white ring in the centre of them. Possibly later.

Although I have a standard bearer there wasn't a standard officer so I've used the Austrian officer with oak leaves cut off.

Flag has no significance - just a random Prussian flag, think it was actually Landwehr.

Haven't glued the command base figures down yet. No excuse/reason...

Having said that, the infantry figure on the base has a slightly different blue uniform - it was my original test figure. On balance, I prefer that blue to the one I used for the unit...

  1. Splendid and formidable, Rob. I rather like the darker blue.
    All the best

    1. It's the same blue I used for the French, certainly suits them.
