When it comes to painting French infantry for New France, it can be pretty easy. Most regiments had White coats faced Red, the catch is to see the colour of the waistcoat.
Regiment du Bearn officially had its uniform colours changed due to supply but I'm going to keep them as painted, my unit which needs paint will be done with the Canadien uniform.
This battalion had taken part in operations at Frontenac 1755, then Niagra in 1756 where it then took part in the attack on Oswego, and Fort Bull and a raid on Fort William-Henry.
It was at Carillon in 1758 defeating the Anglo-american army
By 1759, it was back in Quebec for the siege.
Most of the battalion were able to retreat to Montreal and returned in the spring of 1760 for the battle of St Foix
