The field packs come separately which makes it easier to paint the straps and collars on the figures. Note that some packs have the short swords, those are for the elite companies of grenadiers, chasseurs, etc. I won't be using them for this unit.

Hesse-Darmstadt
Almost finished with the test figure for the Hesse-Darmstadt Gross und Erbprinz Regiment. The figure is painted as a member of the 4th Company. Still fooling around with the camera; pictures aren't great but I think you can see enough detail. In my next post some history and painting guide.
