A Bit Of Help Please

Does anybody know the Airfix Magazine numbers to the original articles on converting HO/OO figures for:

Napoleonic French artillery limbers/caissons
Napoleonic Prussian Army
Napoleonic Austrian Army





I was provided with scans of these articles many years ago but lost them when my old computer died.

Regards,

Matt

  1. Matt - I don't have Airfix magazine but I'm sure there is something on this in my old Miniature Warfare magazines. I'll have a look over the weekend!

  5. Here is a link to the full listing of Airfix Magazine contents. They were in the period Dec 70 to Aug 71. The specific ones you want are May to August 71. There was also a later series in 1977/78 by Terence Wise. I have all of them but it would take some time to scan.

  6. Your picture confused me. The 1970/71 articles cover conversions from figures available before the Waterloo range was released and only cover 1815. The later series has conversions from the Waterloo range and is probably what you want. The articles are:

    French Sept 78
    Prussians Oct 78
    Austrians July 78
    Artillery Dec 79

    I could probably scan those in roughly a week.
