I've just about finished up the French VIII Corps at Borodino for LaSalle and just have the artillery to do. I found that they used French equipment and a reference to having yellow stripes on the wheels. Does anybody have a picture of the gun or know how the stripes were orientated? Did they go around the spokes or just the wheel rim.
Thank You,
Tom Wise
I believe they are pinstripes of yellow on the spokes.
The only source i have is here: http://my.erinet.com/~bp/pt_napca.html
sorry even my eltings cant help here, been through most of my collection of nap books and links not one picture.
Thank You for taking time to research this. I had found something similar here:

None of the sources I found indicated the direction of the pin stripes. I can think of three ways, minimum that they could go.
Thanks again,
Tom
