Viva Juarez! Some More Mexicans and French

I seem to have the bit between my teeth at present so getting a fair bit done.

These 8 Turco's are mainly Perrys, from both the Triple Alliance range along with 2 plastic ACW figures. Once based that will finish a battalion.

This is the third Mexican Lancer, a conversion of a Perry's British Intervention force lancer. 3 more to finish a squadron. Steady progress.

These 4 will slot straight into a Mexican Militia battalion. All Foundry Camerone range.

To help progress the Imperial Mexicans, where figures are not currently available, I have picked up some Wargames Atlantic STL files of Mexicans and Foreign Legion. 

Fabulous service by Paul at Sabotag3d as usual. Once the epoulettes are trimmed these will be perfect for the Imperial Mexicans in either Havelock or Sombrero, I also got Paul to print me extra Sombrero's which will come in handy.

This second image in Sombrero next to a WIP Foundry Mexican shows up well.

A first look at these figures with heads glued on after epoulettes trimmed.

And a few more Mexicans mainly Foundry.

I have a couple of troops in white with Kepis that these will join, both Wargames Foundry.

These Legionnaires from the Camerone range paint up nicely as Imperial Mexicans, this unit will be a real mix of manufacturers.

And a Perry Egyptian Standard bearer with Havelock makes a great Imperial Mexican. Flag from Battle Flag.

Lastly some based and finished figures. these guys are the first squadron of Chasseurs D'Afrique.

First Imperial Mexican battalion in the early uniform.

First Liberal Mexican Battalion completed, most of the rest wont be this uniform but mainly in white cotton.

French and Imperial Mexican leaders.

Six man unit of French Foreign Legion skirmisher unit.

This lot our now going for the first stage of basing compliments of Mr Shann.  So more finished figures to follow soon.

The Box of painted figures also has a whole bunch more Mexicans waiting for enough to make up bases/unts.

Meanwhile the box of completed units is filling up.

First unit of French Foreign Legion completed and ready for the table.

Also the second battalion of Legionnaires.

Another angle below.

So its taking shape and wont be long before we can see units on table.

Thanks for stopping by.
