French 33rd Light Infantry







 The 33rd Light Regiment was in the 4th Division of Davout's First Army Corps.

" This Regiment of Dutch origin did not have the same discipline as a Dovout style Regiment. So on the 10th of July, the Marechal had them file past, barrel downwards." F.-G. Hourtoulle
He left them at Smolensk.

French 7th Light Infantry Regiment







Brig Gerard's 7th Light Infantry Regiment were in the 3rd Division of Marshal Davout's First Army Corps.

These miniatures are 3D printed from Lucus' Piano Wargame Miniatures. I reduced them to 60%. Which got them to the 18mm height. 

They are painted with Speed Paint and other Contrast style paints. Plus highlights with acrylic paint.

Varnished and ready for mounting, part 3








 I used some Scale 75 Instant Colors for the back pack, bed roll and water bottle. And I did some highlights with some acrylics. Then finished with a matte varnish. Next I'll mount them to their stands and finish them.

Russian Rylsk Regiment



The Rylsk Regiment was in the 1st Brigade of the 23rd Division of the Fourth Corps under Lt General Ostermann-Tolstoi. The Fourth Corps was part of the First West Army under General Barclay De Tolly. 

At Borodino the 23rd Division under General Bakhmetiev started to the North East of the town of Borodino.

These figures are 3d printed in 18mm. The files are from Wargames Atlantic digital. There are 3 different heads to choose from. So for this unit I went with the soft cap.
