French Pontoon

I have finished one of my delayed painting jobs: The Hät French pontoon (Ref. 8108). This box has not been commercialized, so I have painted a proof sprue that Harris, the owner of Hät (with the kind permission of Ms. Jones, naturally) sent to me some weeks ago. The sprue came to me along a light-ambulance sprue, so I don't know the sort of horse team that Hät will include in the final releasing.
During 1813, the crossing of rivers was a very important affaire, and the adequate deployment of these cumbersome items was of paramount importance.
