Great Lakes Wargaming Coalition: Figures from Members personal collections...
The mounted figures above are original MiniFig French Hussars painted to represent the 12th Regiment in sky blue and brown. They are mounted on double thick bases to help them fit a little better with 30mm figures.
The figures above are 30mm Command Post 1806 Prussians converted to the same period French Line infantry.
The figures above provide a view of the Command Post Infantry with a command staff by Essex and an original flag by the author for the 85th Infantry Regiment. Note the mixed uniforms and the White coat of the Officer.
The figures above are more Command Post with Front Rank command figures in the White uniform with a few blue uniforms remaining among the elite light company.
The figures above are Suren "Willie" French Middle Guard. These are very nice figures that would be compatible with new wargame armies that primarily use the larger 28mm figures being manufactured today.
The figures above are very old and are a combination of Suren rider castings and some true "Mort" heavy horse conversions. These figures are at least 35 years old and are in the process of being reworked. The additional two squadrons are being painted using new Suren rider castings provided by Tradition of London.
The figures above are Front Rank's 28mm French Dragoons painted to represent the 22nd Dragoons by Ed Olko.
The figures above are Perry's 28mm French 11th Chasseurs a' Cheval with a temporary Essex command group that are mounted on double thick bases to be more compatible with 30mm cavalry.
The figures above are a mixture of 28mm Front Rank French mounted Hussars and 30mm dismounted figures converted to represent dismounted 7th Hussars.
The figures above are a mixture of Suren and Stadden dismounted Command and Horse Artillery castings in 30mm scale converted to represent dismounted 7th Hussars
The figures above are Front Rank's 28mm 1st Austrian Dragoon regiment. The Front Rank heavy horse is very compatible with many 30mm figures so it is not necessary to mount the figures on a double thick base.

The figures above are Jack Scrugy 30mm castings from the 1970's painted to represent the Hungarian 60th Line regiment of the Austrian Army in the 1805 campaign.
The figures above are a real mix of figures, from Command Post, Scruby, to Suren. They are part of the combined Grenadier battalions that were common practice in the Austrian Army of the period.
The figures above are Scruby's Austrian Grenzers painted to represent the 1st battalion, 5th Grenzer, or Border, regiment. Grenzers were often classified as second line troops but in general fought very well during the period of the Napoleonic wars.
The figures above are again a real mixture of manufacturers from Essex, Elite, Front Rank through Scruby. They represent a variety of Militia units from the 1809 period. You can also see four 3# early Austrian Brigade guns. The one missing 4 figure stand was being worked on at the time of this picture.
