Napoleonic update. 15mm British mostly Old Glory

hi all
i know it has been a while but i have been busy painting and at work.
i was unhappy with the 40mm x 30mm bases and after some mock ups and calling a friend decided to go with 24 minis to 6 bases. The bases are from Products for Wargamers, Jim was very helpfull and made these up quick time and at a fantastic price.

25mm x 30mm roughly the same size as Napoleon at War bases. i like the size of the base as it protects the figures and allows space for me to flock them (later). i needed to rebase a load of minis so heres some pics.

in line

 

and some highlanders


most of the miniatures are Old Glory. i like the detail and variety of poses compared to some manufacturers, it makes them more interesting to paint.
 group shot, 7 battalions
 
 the south essex? sharpe & Harper lead the way.
 
and finally the comparison in bases sizes. battalion on the left has 32 minis on 40mm x 30mm.
on the right 24 miniatures on 25mm x 30mm bases. this way they are more flexable and i paint a lot 
less.
