| This particular officer is an advance look at the 'border horse' troops that I have planned, though they will not be under brush until after the Petronels, the Oxford Foot and Oxford Horse are all done. |

Very nice. Lord Hopton?
That's quite a force David and they look wonderful too! Only but a part of the whole too, of course...
Thank you gentlemen.
None of the miniatures were painted with any particular Royalist commander or force in mind. Though Hopton is likely to be the name given to at least one of the leader figures in the course of games.
Yes James this is only 1/3 of the total Royalist forces. Welsh and now Cornish forces are done ... on the paint shelf now are 'petronels' which I will use as Royalist or western forces dragooners.
Then comes the Oxford Royalist force, with 4 pike & shot and 4 horse formations.
Then, at long last the planned English Civil War forces will be assembled.
Though as I study the situation ... there's just no way to do the ECW justice without the Scots. Therefore early mold plans are being formed and we will see what comes about this year or next with game plans to get these troops into action ... along with the Napoleonic ones.
At least I have begun shedding the 15mm unused minis to release both storage and funding for the coming project(s).
Wow, splendid parade, flags and figures are superb and very impressive...
