More Caçadores - 1st and 2nd

Posted by Bill Slavin on 21 Nov 2020, 16:55

I've been working away at creating Crauford's entire Light Division, and up until now had finished the Rifles and the 43rd. Recently I decided it was time to complete the 1st and 2nd Caçadores.

About a year and a half ago I posted some simple conversions of HaT British infantry into Portuguese Caçadores that I had painted up as the 6th. Recently I received some Revell Rifles from a friend who had come to the sad conclusion he was never going to paint them. As to date none of my Caçadores were armed with rifles, I decided they would convert nicely to Portuguese light infantry. Those, along with some more converted HaT British infantry, make up my newly minted 1st and 2nd battalions.

For those interested there are more photos and information here on my blog. https://tinywarsplayedindoors.blogspot.com/2020/11/more-cacadores-1st-and-2nd.html

Yes, Chris, 3000 Napoleonic figures, I just realized - I thought it was closer to 2000! :eh:
