1st Aragón Light Infantry

This week’s unit is the only light infantry unit intended for this army.



This is the last of the fully uniformed battalion from the 1805-1808 part of this army.





Next up is the second battalion with a mix of uniforms and civilian dress.

      Indeed it is a great tool, but I have seen some disasterous translations at times. Will finish the first full unit of half civilisn dress tonight.

    Another great unit, and I much prefer the blue-jacketed Spanish lights to the green.

    Great sculpts and great painting. Who makes the sculpts? Perry?

      Thank you Jonathan. All but two are Perry, the others are Brigade Games to make up for the diaplaced standard bearers.

    Lovely work Mark...
    Blue with red facings... it’s a bit of a classic combination.

    All the best. Aly.

      The Spanish are fun, as you will see with the next unit - that should appear he tomorrow. For me the issue is not so much time as it is money to spend on toys.
