Editorial Reviews

About the Author

Peter has made his living as a freelance illustrator for 40 years, mostly working on historical subjects, notably in recent years for Osprey in the UK, and for various wargame figure manufacturers in the form of box art. He designed and illustrated Paddy Griffith's 'Battle in the Civil War' which was a new approach to explaining the job of the American Civil War General and was commissioned to do several series of drawings for the new Gettysburg visitor centre. Peter has played with toy soldiers in one way or another for most of his life, and his work and hobby come together in this paper soldier revival project with Helion books. He lives in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, in the UK.

While these are excellent for what they are, they lack Andy Callan's rules. A free rules set is available on the Helion website under Paperboys , then downloads. Also, check out the Wofun Games website; they sell these figures mounted in plexiglass!

5.0 out of 5 stars Peter Dennis does it again. Excellent book
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 12, 2019

The latest, as of Mid 2019, Paperboys on Campaign series covers the Napoleonic Peninsular war and inside, you will find:

French,
Portuguese,
British,
Spanish

armies to copy, print and cut out.

If you are familiar with the other books, this is similar format. You copy a page, scan it or take it to a local printer, print the page, score where it needs scoring, cut out, glue and cut out again. Hey presto a squadron/company of paperboys ready to take to a wargame table or just a display cabinet.

As per usual, the standard is incredibly high and the figures are a joy to look at. Peter is an incredibly prolific artist of the top order and his work can be seen in army books like the osprey Men at Arms series etc.

One page, the Spanish infantry in Brown coats has been printed slightly off center in the first edition but the publishers have made the page available as a PDF download, free of charge, so no harm done.

Peter has also added to his Paperboys website, sheets of French allied troops (Dutch and various German states, available for purchase.

Maybe not for everyone, but if you're one who gets it, then you know who you are. If you don't, try it, maybe you'll like it.

Either way, I recommend this book for both the enthusiast and the generic reader of Napoleonic uniforms.

5.0 out of 5 stars Why paper when I can get lead?
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 24, 2020

So what do I like about this and other books in the Paperboys series? Simply put it is the quickest and cheapest way to get reasonably large numbers of "painted" miniatures into the table quickly
Case in point with this book, I wanted to dabble in some Napoleonic gaming, but cost and time to paint all those figures was prohibitive. Solution , using this book I scanned and printing up sheets for around 400 troops of all arms for each side - roughly twenty sheets- and after a weekend of careful cutting and glueing I was all set to go. Using plastic\ lead miniatures would have cost far more and weeks of painting.

Peter's artwork is superb and far better than I could achieve , so go on give these books a go, you will not regret it
