Happy December, everyone!
In honor of the coming of winter, I thought I would post some wintery folks; namely, the first set of foot officers of my 25mm Napoleonic Russian army!Like my French army, my Russian army splits rather neatly in two and each wing is commanded by a group of foot officers, who in turn report to the General. Unfortunately I could not find enough officers in great coats; however, I didn't really mind, as I don't want a Russian army totally devoid of green!
This trio includes a Grenadier officer, who is ready to report back to his troops, a rather demanding infantry officer who is pointing towards the piece of the enemy line that he wants his men to attack with most vigor, and of course the wing commander himself, who is urging his men forward.
All of these chaps are courtesy of Sash and Saber.

Just had to post a comment on this beautifully done army - great inspiration for my own which is just at the gluing stage! Like you have gone for plenty of Greatcoats and must say you've done the lovely foundry models justice.

Hey!
Thanks so much for coming around and checking it out, and of course thanks for the kind compliments! I have been in a bit of a rut recently as far as painting, but I have faith I'll get out of it... all I have left is to finish a unit of infantry that is more than half complete, 3 artillery pieces and their limbers/caissons, 3 foot officers, and 12 cavalry and I am done! Then finally I can move on to either my Nappy Austrians or my first 25mm ACW figures!
Anyway... I am glad you've found some inspiration here, and when you have your own figures up I'd love to see them!
