@@Lekw2001 it’s nice to hear from you again. I’m glad you liked it now comes the arduous task of putting them back in their boxes and in the shelf and pulling out the next one.😂😂
I have been waiting for this for a while Kevin! I simply love the Age of Musketry period of history. Very nice looking forces Kevin! My personal favorite Napoleonic troop type is the French Cuirassier, Not sure what it is about them that just strikes me the right way. I think its the helmet, breast plate and their swords that is appealing to me. I've been fortunate enough to hold a real French Cuirassier sword and its quite heavy. You can tell from holding it that it is a lethal weapon. I have been mulling around the idea of trying my hand at painting the Napoleonic's so if you show more of your troops that could be some nice inspiration!
@@nordicmaelstrom4714 thank you for your lovely comment. I have a Cuirassier helmet of 1815 and I have a sword that came from the battlefield that is sword from Waterloo. You’re right it is heavy. It’s hanging on my wall. I will be putting up my whole collection of Napoleonic over the next six weeks. And some of the other armies I haven’t put up yet so stay tuned.
@@thekrausecollection15mmmin53 I am very jealous of that Kevin! The French Cuirassier is the epitome of horse and musketry era cavalry in my mind. I was almost taken aback at how heavy the sword actually is. Excellent! I love to see your beautifully painted miniatures arrayed for battle. Very inspirational to see. I actually just ordered the same visor Fritz uses for painting. I'm saving my nickles and dimes so to speak to place an order from Pendraken in a few weeks. I want to get some of their lovely 10mm Napoleonics and American War of Independence miniatures and finally push my self to get back to painting.
@@philRminiatures I’m trying to get a little bit better at the photography but to be frank I need to learn a little bit more about how to take pictures
@@hxjay1971 yeah I was absolutely shocked at how big it was when I put it on the table. I wasn’t expecting that to be honest. I’m glad my wife is gone. She might be hitting me with a broom.
@@paulbenson9015 thank you very very much, Paul as you can imagine this is just the guard core. There are another 10 cores to do well they’re done. I just need to put them on the table and video them. That itself takes a lot of time. Because then I start seeing things I need to touch up and fix it’s not so easy but thank you so much for your lovely comment.
@@MrElliptific no I put this up just for everybody. Everybody in the hobby to get inspiration, have dialogue and actually see something painted. I never did this channel ticket likes or subscribers or anything else that a lot of RUclipsrs do. I just did it for us and also to just document my work somehow. Maybe my grandchildren if I ever get any will look at them
Brilliant collection...................butttt.....................only the senior regiments of the corps of grenadiers & chasseurs had eagles. I.e. the 3 regiments of grenadiers a pied and 2 regiments of chasseurs a pied. The middle and young guard units had variously coloured fanions and no eagles
@@stephennutt4083 you are more than likely right. You know when you get a bag of figures from old glory or whomever I just sort out and say here’s 24 figures or here’s 48. Let’s paint these up. I knew that by putting this up I was opening up myself to getting a massive massive history lesson. I appreciate you telling me and I’ll have to go back and take a look at it. I’m going to wait four weeks to get all the comments in and then I’ll go back and make adjustments. Here is a massive hug from Atlanta.
@@thekrausecollection15mmmin53 If they are 1812 then the eagle bearing units should have the lozenge style tricolour - I think the guard only used the modern style tricolour in 1815. I found this out the hard way. Another wargamer leant over the table. Praised my painting and then pointed out how my middle and young guard units had the wrong standards. You can get 15mm versions of the flags from GMB in the UK
@@paoloferraris8518 thank you very much for your compliment. I really appreciate you taking time to write. Of course I would write you back in Italian, but it would not be as good as writing you and my mother tongue.

This is an absolutely beautiful collection!
@@mitchsminis well this is 1/14th of the French collection. It’s massive
@@thekrausecollection15mmmin53 that’s very impressive, I am looking forward to seeing more of your napoleonic armies.
A display worthy of the guard!

Bloody awesome Kevin, what a beautiful spectacle!!! Lancers/Uhlans are cool, especially those wearing Czapka's👍

Another VERY impressive ARMY! Beautiful!
@@michaelwedding9077 I just put this up. There’s no way you could’ve watched it. Unbelievable you must be laying in bed with nothing else to do.😂😂😂
I guess one could say the same thing about me 😂😂😂
@@thekrausecollection15mmmin53 I am watching you closely!!! I saw it all over Facebook...
Huge army, impressive in formation, and looks rather nice in closeups
Absolutely beautiful Kevin, well done!
Fantastic collection!
@@HordesofThings merci 😂
Wow!!!!! Fantastic. I'm extremely super impressed. Overwhelming beautiful.
