Thanks , i'll try out the officer with the Mirlton, I checked out the Elite miniatures range yesterday. The make I and II battallion 20th Regt Reserve infantry in British uniforms with stovepipe shako but shoulder straps not wings, what would be needed is III battalion 20th Regt with rifles uniforms and wings, i'll e-mail and ask if this unit is planned, especially after what i read yesterday...
I'd pretty much decided on Front Rank Portugese cacadores and Front Rank Rifles as the basis for the conversion work for the men of the units ( I only need 3 or 4 officers) when I read in the Wellingtons Infantry 2 that 'of course only the sharpshooter companies had rifles the rest of the KGL light Battalions were MUSKET armed'....Sigh....
I was so mad I finished off the Belgian Regt I had been working on for ages!
But then again the rifle armed would have been the first to be detached and sent to defend La Haye Sainte, triumph of hope over despair
There are some excellent comparative black and white Knotel sketches of 1st and 2nd KGL Light battalions in the Osprey 'Hanovarian Infantry of the Napoleonic Wars'
Thanks to all for your help and encouragement, I'll try and post a picture when I've finished, but don't hold your breath.
