Starting out on a new Project - The 1809 campaign in Northern Italy

I have begun a new Project. This will be based on the campaign that started in Northern Italy and went on into Austria fought between the Franco-Italians commanded by Price Eugene de Beauharnais and the Austrians under Archduke John.I will base the forces on one of the battles thattook place in this theatre but I am not sure which one at the moment. The photo is of my first 'test' unit for the conflict - 2nd btn Infantry Regt 27 Strassaldo. I am pleased with how it has come out (although I cannot say the same for the photo which is quite dark).

The Completed French Army of the North 1871

The General Faidherbe's Army of the North on January 3rd 1871, fielded 2 Corps; the 22nd and the 23rd. Each Corps was comprised of 2 divisions, and each division had 2 brigades. In total the Army of the North had 56 battalions of variable quality and levels of training and 15 batteries of artillery (note: there were no mitrailleuse batteries in the oob).
