... or how I spent the latest month of restricted time.
I have had a game, Unhappy King Charles, which includes a 'conjectural' allied force for the Royalist from France, Lorraine in particular.
I had some unpainted pike & shot swapped to me for some colonials and as they were already assembled, all I needed to do was add a fender washer and paint them up.
So here they are!
the completed Battallia |
how they looked after fender washers were on |
I used an azimuth technique with black from below and white from above for the base coat |
then a wash and highlight |
color layers |
out on a sunny afternoon for clear matte coat |
there were a couple of metal officers with real character |
the while battallia looked great (though I still need to do more flags - they are all the 2x sized ones) |
a red regiment |
a blue |
a tawny yellow |
and a mixed green regiment (missing any flag yet) |
the metal officers contingent |
all on parade on a battlefield I set up to give them a first run and try out some solo rules ideas of mine ... |

Very nice!
These have turned out very nicely indeed.
Oooh, this is a dangerous idea I can see how this might, quite easily, facilitate a slide from ECW into the deep, dark waters of the 30yw. I like it!
FMB, this is a slippery slope, indeed!
FMB lol!
Hmmm ...
