Archduke Carl‘s Infantry regiment and then some ...

The regiment was raised after the War of Austrian Succcession and served in the Seven Years War at the battle of Kolin, Breslau, Leuthen, Hochgiersdorf, Torgau and the storming of Schweidnitz. Yet again I only choose them on aesthetical reasons for their wonderful uniforms. I also painted some 6pdrs and a command stand and a Staff officer/command token. I'm working further on some more gins from Front Rank and Wargames Foundry as well as the fabulous Hungarian Huzzars of Nadasdy ... more to come ... :)
