28mm Connoisseur miniatures French line and light painted as Würzburg, Croatians, and French

I love Connoisseur figures. They are beautiful classics which bring me back to "Big battalion" games at the Wargames Holiday Centre. The late, great, Peter Guilder designed these figures. He brought higher standards to the hobby in terms of figures, terrain and rules.

Bicorne miniatures now sell these figures. They are a lot harder to paint than "modern" types. Often you have to paint on details like buttons, or modify figures.




French line infantry (Connoisseur battalions) painted as the Würzburg contingent in the Confederation of the Rhine





These are the Croation 1st and 3rd light infantry. The figures are Connoisseur French light infantry. It is great to paint up French as allies to break up the blue on the table top.

  1. These look excellent. I keep looking at Connoisseur but never make the buy, I wish Bicorne put more pictures online!
    Like you I love the smaller states mixed in amongst the sea of blue.
    Be good,
