Rose Napoleonic project 2019: British Infantry


Line infantry - five battalions of them - two refurbished, three painted from scratch.


Half a battalion of heavily converted Highlanders from the Peter Goldsbrough collection. There is an officer to add who needs a repair to his sword arm.


Half a battalion of lightly converted Rifles, with their rather nice command element.

Nothing like a bunch of Napoleonic British line infantry! Although I've heard of this particular line of figures, I can't recall ever seeing any in the hobby press back when I entered the hobby in the early 1980s. When did they initially go out of production?

Best Regards and Happy New Year,

They were in production (with various interruptions and changes in ownership) up until 3 or 4 years ago when Rob Young stopped selling them and Garrison etc. Russell Gamage had retired and sold them on in the late 1980s.

They are lovely figures especially the advancing pose, you've done well to obtain them.
