Again, the product descriptions say exactly what each mini is from left to right.<br /><br />As the Perry French range is from mainly 1815, this is an excellent site for that campaign:<br /><br />http://centjours.mont-saint-jean.com/index.php<br /><br />and this page deals specifically with the command/staff/officer uniforms:<br /><br />http://centjours.mont-saint-jean.com/officiersFR.php<br /><br />Otherwise Google is always your friend.

There was a default dark blue uniform coat with light blue facings which the Perry site shows. Having said that, ADCs and other hangers on frequently wore whatever uniform they liked (or their commander decreed). Often these were from their regiment of origin but with personal embellishments, extra lace and gaudy stuff. They epitomised the live fast, die young and leave a beautiful corpse ideal.<br /><br />General officers wore a somwewhat more standardsised uniform, a dark blue coat with as much gold facings as they could get away with. Again, plenty of peacocks like Murat went overboard and designed their own outrageous outfits. The more senior the more you could make it up as you go.<br /><br />There are two excellent Osprety Elite books on the subject if you're interested.<br /><br />http://www.ospreypublishing.com/store/Napoleons-Commanders-(1)_9781841760551<br /><br />http://www.ospreypublishing.com/store/Napoleons-Commanders-(2)_9781841763453<br /><br />Staff are an opportunity for you to be creative. By all means look to make them recognisable but enjoy yourself and don't hold back either. Just my 2c worth...<br /><br />Cheers,<br />MillsyMillsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17580692168847505881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3103967522725268062.post-30129937534655354652012-08-27T19:25:08.082-07:002012-08-27T19:25:08.082-07:00I did check their site, but the uniform details ar...I did check their site, but the uniform details are really what I need more than anything... they have one example that is painted already, although I don't know what the uniforms are... and then one pack that are unpainted... and I don't know what is what:)Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01992613594254823700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3103967522725268062.post-76423316947612787582012-08-27T13:34:59.220-07:002012-08-27T13:34:59.220-07:00At the risk of being too obvious here, check out t...At the risk of being too obvious here, check out the actual product descriptions on the Perry Miniatures site. (I just did :) ) It basically tells you left to right what all these guys are and should answer most (other than uniform details) of your questions.<br /><br />http://www.perry-miniatures.com/product_info.php?cPath=23_28_54&products_id=1921<br /><br />http://www.perry-miniatures.com/product_info.php?cPath=23_28_54&products_id=1922<br /><br />Hope that helps.<br /><br />JasonJason Meyershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12510878862274931588noreply@blogger.com
