28mm Napoleonic Austrian, British and French infantry

Here are some pictures of my Austrian, British 71st Highlander, French line, light and Guard infantry. The Austrians are painted a greyish off white, which I must have done years ago. For the past few years, five years or so, I've painted them cream colour, and then used sepia ink to stain them, before highlighting. I seem to remember these Austrians had to be repainted a few times to get the result white enough.

I'm looking at hand woven patterns for blankets and other cloth at the moment, with a view to painting them on my Napoleonic Spanish Guerillas. I think I must be going strange. This hobby has taken an odd tangent.
