Converted Britains Toy Style Armies
A few years ago I started collecting old Britains figures that needed repair and repainting. The figures received reinforcements from home cast molds I borrowed and the scrap pewter I have. I created some units of armies usually not represented such as Franco Prussian War, the Franco-Austrian War, and the Seven Weeks War.
First, French infantry. My figures can represent 1854 to 1871 because on their simplified and stylized look.
More to come.
