Posted July 30, 200915 yr Ive now added the plumes to all the shakos of my infantry. Ive also completed the first of my Red Lancers. The main troop types are shown here like Grenadiers of the Guard, Line Grenadiers, Voltiguers and Chasseurs(light infantry). Tell us what you think.
July 30, 200915 yr Wow, great work on these, your customs never cease to amaze me! Amazing (I realy seldom use that). But I have a first comment. Maybe you should use a original Lego flag for the Lancers flag (and paint it). I think that would look more realistic .... Woody64 Can we also expect Dragoons and Cuirassiers?

July 31, 200915 yr This is looking amazing! I love your custom work! Weird, I saw this on brickshelf about ten minutes before this was posted.

July 31, 200915 yr I'm astonished by seeing those creations! Your work on the shako's is amazing! I love the plumes and the tiny ropes on it, the decals on the torso's and cuffs are also amazing. I also like the stiched cloth on some trousers, great detail. Your horse regiments look brilliant, their hats are really nice. Keep them coming!
July 31, 200915 yr Your army looks amazing! Keep up the good work and if made larger, it will be even nicer to watch!
August 3, 200915 yr Awesome customs michaelozzie! Are you planning to take these to Brickvention 2010 in Melbourne? I hope so, cause I really want to see these in the flesh. This has been blogged on Classic-Pirates.com.
August 3, 200915 yr Very impressive customs! Great decals too. The golden cannon really caught my eye. Great work, keep it up! ~LW 8~

August 5, 200915 yr How did you connect the snaredrum to the minifig? Or is it a secret. I really want to make some drummers for my army. The sticks, is that a common pole (lightsaber) cut in half? Already thanks!
August 6, 200915 yr absolutely astonishing! I personally think that no one in this forum make better Napoleonic soldier than you, if there is someone you think that does or you think you do, please do show up their/your creation.
August 6, 200915 yr Author How did you connect the snaredrum to the minifig? Or is it a secret. I really want to make some drummers for my army.The sticks, is that a common pole (lightsaber) cut in half? Already thanks! Yeah i used a brown pole(lightsaber and cut it in half). To attach the drum i made a strap which was attached under the sticker decal on ths drum. I also used sticker paper for the strap so it held it in place better on the torso. It was cut long enough to wrap over the shoulder and down the back again. And the ends are inserted between the torso and legs. If you would like some pics let me know and i will post them.
August 6, 200915 yr Thanks mate! I will try something out soon, so far everything is very clear to me. First the snaredrum decal...
September 27, 200915 yr absolutely astonishing!I personally think that no one in this forum make better Napoleonic soldier than you, if there is someone you think that does or you think you do, please do show up their/your creation. I shall take that challenge! In a few weeks I'll post it. Outstanding work on these minifigs! The cords must take a lot of work. One question, have you painted the canon? (I suppose you did, but the colour resembles pearl gold perfectly) Gaetano TT
September 28, 200915 yr This is GREAT - I instantly fell in love with your great army. Absolutely astonishing... and full of detaisl (e.g. the patch on one of the soldiers trousers....). Can't wait to see more or see them into action on a vignette!

Does anyone know a technique of making a czapka with cheaper tools than with ABS plastic molding machines?
April 29, 201212 yr Amazing army! I've watched this for a long time. I am astonished by your custom czapka/rogatywkas on the red lancers. Does anyone know a technique of making a czapka with cheaper tools than with ABS plastic molding machines? There's the CMF Graduate hat. With some paint and a little bit of modding it could look good, I think.
April 29, 201212 yr I am trying to do a similar thing in my waterloo topic how did you make the heads for the polish lancers and where did you get the decals
June 18, 201212 yr I am astonished by your custom czapka/rogatywkas on the red lancers. Does anyone know a technique of making a czapka with cheaper tools than with ABS plastic molding machines? Take a look on my store visible in the footer. Woody64
