Austrian reinforcements

After spending time painting up Ottomans and Poles I decided it was time to try and finish off the remaining Austrian troops that I have for the 1809 campaign. So here they are the first of 3 line infantry regiments. These are the 16th or Erzherzog Rudolf's regiment. I simply chose these as they have violet facings. The figures are a mix of Bluemoon and Campaign miniatures. They have mixed together quite well and I like the look of units with variety of poses.

In line
The flag is from Warflag and the bases as usual from Warbases. Unlike my other regiments these are only 24 figure strong compared to 32. I may get around to adding the remaining 8 figures in the future (miss count when ordering). Next I have the other 2 line regiments to make a start on.
