Swedish Foot and Basing

I have almost completed my first battalion of Swedish Foot and have flue tacked the figures to bases to see which suits best. We have decided that 50mm frontage works best for foot with three figures at the front, Jury still out on horse but I hope to have these on 50mm too.

These are mainly Warfare Miniatures with the odd Wargames Foundry thrown in. Both 50mm Frontage which I feel gives a nice solid look.

Here you can see the difference in depth, on the right 60mm which looks good but the long bayonets will be easily damaged extending over the base, as will officer and NCO pole arms. The base to the left is 80mm deep and does not have the same problems.

In this picture we see again how the 80mm will protect the bayonets etc whilst the 60mm wont.
