Toy Style 54mm Bavarian Infantry, 1870

             There's something about Bavarian troops that makes me think they will break out in song in a Operetta. There is a lot of post Franco Prussian War art showing Bavarians in action to also inspire me to make a few units in 54mm. 






Here is my unit of Bavarians made from Britains recasts of men at attention. Heads are Britains heads from London Bridge  with "Green Stuff" fur tufts. "Green Stuff" was also used for the equipment detail. 












The blue uniform color  is Deco-Art Americana "Ocean Blue" acrylic. It's close-ish to the "Corn Flower Blue" that the uniforms were supposed to be.
