i have no idea what kits to start with though and what paints to use, so if you have any ideas post them please.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455967/4409589.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455967/4409589.page GMT any painting/kitbash ideas to help with a sharpe based IG veteran squad GW figures, there are all sorts of metal and plastic figures available of Napoleonic British that would work.

If you did want to use exclusively GW parts, the old Mordian and Praetorian Imperial Guard regiments have uniforms reasonably close to the 95th. Or as close as you are likely to get without a lot of resculpting. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455967/4409812.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455967/4409812.page GMT Re:any painting/kitbash ideas to help with a sharpe based IG veteran squad

What, like these guys?

If you notice, there is a skirmisher in a green uniform on the front of the box, which is exactly what you would need for a 95th figure. Unfortunately, there are only four of those models in that box, the other thirty six are line infantry, who have different uniforms and rifles. That being said, the line infantry would be good for a themed platoon or as a start for a Lasalle army...

Either the metal figures or just the skirmisher sprues would be a better option in this case. The sprue is dirt cheap, but you only have two poses. Metals aren't too bad, but depending on what else you have in your army, they will look like teenagers compared to Cadians and the like.

Was going to suggest them myself, I buy from them a lot, they offer good kits!

Never seen the perry's minatures before. Are those the right scale to merge well with IG? If so, I might pick up some of the civil war kits, I got so many ideas that flooded in on seeing them....!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455967/4416769.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455967/4416769.page GMT Re:any painting/kitbash ideas to help with a sharpe based IG veteran squad

They are closer to 25mm scale than the 33-35mm most IG have crept to. They will be a bit slight compared to Cadians and Catachans, and their eyes only come up to about the collar of a Space Marine, which I am sure makes Jes Goodwin immensely satisfied.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455967/4418150.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/455967/4418150.page GMT
