Bavarian Infantry 1809

 Hello everyone,

I wanted to post something that I have been editing for awhile and not so much research based. Below can be found a work in progress of Bavarian infantry and Austrian infantry in 1809. The Bavarian cornflower blue is slightly darker than many paint their miniatures, but thanks to the help of von Winterfeldt on TMP, I was able to see the actual uniforms and paintings by von Kobell and Albrecht Adam from the period. First we have the Bavarians. The plates were very heavily edited from the great website http://centjours.mont-saint-jean.com/ One of the best sources for uniforms on the Bavarian Army from 1800-1815 are the Cantler Plates https://www.napoleon-series.org/military-info/organization/Bavaria/Cantler/c_cantler.html
