If you haven't checked out Perry miniatures new Confederation of the Rhine troops then why not?
If your into your Napoleonics and have got way to many French already then here is your chance to add some very colourful and unusual  allies.

Above are the Saxe weimar and Saxe-Hildburghausen command that i painted a few weeks back.
These made up the 3rd battalion of the 4th regiment of the Confederation of the Rhine (Saxon Duchies). They were designated light infantry with the 3rd rank carrying rifles.

Saxe-coburg voltigeurs, 4th regiment of the Rhine

I've been asked more than a few times to show a few close ups of the new Perry miniatures confederation of the Rhine troops. So i'll start with the most colourful! 

The first two battalions for the 4th Rhinbund regiment included a voltigeur company comprising of men supplied by the duchies of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld.
This has to be one of the most colourful uniforms EVER!! as can be seen above. 
These are obviously part of my commission for Perry miniatures new confederation of the Rhine range.I will be painting a battalion for pleasure as soon as time allows!

Saxe-Weimar Chasseurs, 3rd battalion 4th regiment Confederation of the Rhine

The third battalion 4th regiment Confederation of the Rhine was designated as light infantry and comprised of troops from the states of Saxe-Weimar and Saxe-Hildburghausen. The third rank were armed with rifles. These Perry miniatures are a real joy to paint, the dark green Prussian cut uniform contrasts nicely with the buff belts. If you are in a rush to get them finished you could always go for the later black belts!
