Compaigne Frances uniforms


 Between metal and plastic I have built several units with the uniforms. I shall put up some of these shortly

Most of the uniforms which I have modelled them in 1/72 are of the companies dressed in garrison uniforms they would have worn in several forts in New France. This would be a justecoat of grey-white, blue breeches, blue waistcoat. From the 1750s white gaiters were added. Tricorns edged in yellow or gold

Outposts would see the soldiers either in just their waistcoat and breeches. Or in Amerindian inspired leggings and loincloths with a Bonnet du police, a type of forge cap.

While out on campaign, they had a more Canadien look or adapted to the environment.
