Field bakery

I came across a picture of Dirk Langendijk which is known as a reliable source for depiction uniforms of the late 18th century period (including the FR period).

As I was looking for a theme for the Crisis show of November 2020 (now sadly cancelled) I thought this would be a good new addition to our FR wargame and a nice model to make.

The first picture is the plate by Langendijk, the second a bigger pic of the mobile ovens, the third a bigger pic of the tents with bakers.

I tried to model three mobile ovens and found suitable figures for it made by Black Hussar Miniatures. Although these are ment for the 7YW, I think they are suitable for my little Dutch FR project as the Dutch wore some older looking unifoms and I think a bakers outfit of the 7YW would not be out of place in the FR period.

Oh, and because we are Dutch, a bicycle appeares in some of the pictures; just a gimmick. Some like such additions, some not.
