Napoleonic Wars – Austrian Army

Austria was one of the most resilient adversaries of the French Army. However there are not many figures representing this army.

Generals

Chintoys

006 Austrian General Staff

This company made a large number of Generals from different armies. Sculpting is very good and a challenge to those, as myself, like to paint the miniatures. There are not instructions for painting along with the figures, so I did a bit of creativity and the result is most probably not historically correct.

From left: Francis II, Holy Roman Emperor; Karl Philip, Prince Schwarzenberg; Johan Frimont; Moritz Joseph von Liechtenstein.

Karl Paul von Qousdanovich; Peter de Vcsey et Hajnacskeo; Archduke Charles Duke of Teschen; Andreas Hofer.

Infantry

Italery

This Italian company produced a box (ref. 6884) of infantry including some grenadiers.

The officer wears the characteristic red trousers. The figures have the high quality of Italery production.
