Italeri 1/72 French Line Infantry (1815) - Detailed Napoleonic Miniatures

The Italeri 1/72 French Line Infantry kit gives modellers a close look at soldiers from Napoleon's Grande Armee. The set focuses on the line infantry who formed the backbone of Napoleonic formations in 1815, with their characteristic shako headgear that replaced bicorns after 1806. It is a compact but faithful option for hobbyists who enjoy historical accuracy.

Role of the Line Infantry in 1815

Line infantry units were central to period battle tactics, and this kit mirrors their equipment and uniforms with careful detail. The sculpting highlights period-accurate jackets, shakos and accoutrements, making it a useful reference when recreating campaigns from the late Napoleonic era.
