An Eastern Spanish Unit

This week’s effort is another line infantry unit but this time from eastern Spain, in top hat.



Again the uniforms were British made.



There will be another of these units to come, but in pale blue.

    1. No these guys fought with the British. The game, as I understand it, has the two sides opposing.

  4. Great work Mark. When I see these British-supplied uniforms I always wonder if a bunch of very average British tailors were made very rich by the Napoleonic wars. I really enjoyed our brief catch-up last week; it was great to see you again after all these years.

    1. Thanks Lawrence. Indeed it was good to catch up, I was thinking the other day and it must have been close to 30 years...maybe more.
