Just to prove I am getting back into actually painting some miniatures, no matter how obscure they might be.
Køngens Livjægerkorps (The King's Life Jäger Corps) was an elite unit formed as a result of the British bombardment of Copenhagen in 1807, when Denmark allied with Napoleon. They were a volunteer, bourgeois force, similar in spirit to other Jäger units across German-speaking states.
These are Steve Barber Miniatures designed specifically as the korps with their distinctive czapzka-like shako.



Interesting and obscure additions to your forces Colin!
ReplyDeleteHard to go wrong with jaegers or chasseurs from any conflict of the broader Horse and Musket-era. They offer so much scope for unique modelling and vignettes like these.

One of my all time favourite units! Lovely to see them represented thus.

Excellent, I too love the obscure units they may not get onto the table very much but, fun to research and paint.
