I was checking on the Gajo sight and saw they had restocked their 15mm Prussian Grenadier and Portuguese infantry for the Napoleonic Wars. I wanted a unit of Grenadiers to go with my late war army. I also wanted some units of Prussian Reserve Infantry in British uniforms. I grabbed a unit of the former and two of the latter on their website.
I was not a fan of the earlier Portuguese, as I thought the blue was too light. With the new figures, this problem has been taken care of, so I was in. As my plan was to use these as Prussians, I had to replace the commander figure with a Prussian uniform figure. That was not an issue, I just wrote to Gajo and they made the switch for me. The Grenadiers were straight from the site.
I got the figures and mounted them on my usual basing (old Napoleonic Battles standard) and attached flocking with paint. I have plenty of Prussian flags that I printed out from Warflag a long time ago, so just added those with some white glue and the three units are ready to go! Now I just have to find what I did with my existing British rifle miniatures and make some jaeger bases!
