About the Project
I'm collecting two armies in 10m to recreate the battle of Quatre Bras the prelude to Waterloo. This will be for the Blackpowder game system. I've never painted minis this small before but I think the battle can be better represented at this scale.

The battlefield had s few farm buildings dotted around it especially around the crossroads. I don't own any 10mm buildings so I'm making some simple ones from foam board and card
Mapping out their footprint first
Final French infantry
My final units are now complete. This regiment I have given green pom poms on their shakos so a player can identify them on the table. Strange sense if relief knowing I have no more to paint
