Italeri 6093 1/72 Napoleonic Austrian Infantry Set  [IT-6093S]

Overview of the Italeri 1/72 Austrian Infantry figures

This Italeri 1/72 Napoleonic Wars Austrian Infantry model captures the look of Austrian soldier dress and kit from the late 1700s to early 1800s. The set highlights distinctive elements like short leather caps with brass front plates showing the imperial eagle, rendered for accurate finishing at small scale.

Period events and accurate detailing

The kit nods to historical moments such as the Battle of Marengo on June 14th, 1800, when Napoleon's forces fought the Austrian army under General Baron Melas. That battle proved decisive in reshaping politics across Europe. The figures include helmets from 1798 decorated with Francis II's initials, typical of Frei-Corps and Jager light infantry formations.

Appeal for modellers and displayers

Model makers will value the well-sculpted poses and faithful gear details, which lend themselves to painting, weathering, and diorama integration. The kit is both a study in period uniform design and a rewarding build for hobbyists.
