Im wondering if Baccus would consider a figure to suit Austrian 1809 formed Jagers, Vienna Woods Landwehr, other Landwehr and Archduke Charles Legion troops. I think all could be done with the same figure. Corsehat type.

Alternately is there a proxy that would surfice.

Oh yes please, I really like to see that! You could also do austrian pioneers with them.

Cheers, Ralf

I believe the Austrian Landwehr formed is intended or can be used for those troops.

Thanks Glenn

i have painted two battalions of these Landwehr and very happy with them. They are in Greatcoat and i guess im being bit fussy. I did use the Austrian Jager skirmish figure tightly packed in two ranks on a base to reprsent formed Jagers and it looked ok. Given that the Austrian army of 1809 had at least a dozen Battalions of this type in Corsehat , plus the Regular Jagers, i thought it would be a fitting and worthwhile addition to any Austrian army.

Anyway, back to painting more Austrians.
