Have made a start on the Government forces to oppose my Jacobites . This is the Earl Of Loudoun's Regt. (64th) , there were only three weak companies at Prestonpans left guarding the baggage train but I have decided to paint up a full size unit of six bases .
The figures are from the Redbox Highland Infantry box and I think they are rather nice .
Here are the command base the flag was a nightmare to get right , there is some dispute on the colour of the regimental facings - either white or light buff - I went for buff . I'm painting up the first of the British foot next .
Ooh they are nice! Where did you get your uniform source from?

DeleteLovely! :o)
ReplyDelete20mm is a bit fiddlier than 28mm but not so bad once you get going .
DeleteRed Box do some rather nice figures , pity they didn't seem to finish off their '45' range.
ReplyDeleteSuper work, Tony!
ReplyDeleteThanks enjoying this project now I have got my head around tartans
DeleteThey look rather tasty...
ReplyDeleteAll the best. Aly
They are nice aren't they , 1/72nd figure designers seem to get their body scales right - no large hands and heads .
