Despite some further interruption to the painting schedule, I have managed to work on a couple of units this week.
Only one has made it through the uniform store and out of the basing department. That is the 69th Regiment of foot.
I have done this unit a little differently to the other three British units, in that they are all in the present, or at ready, pose, and I have given them a variety of trouser colours.

The second unit, a Napoleonic Spanish one, is uniformed by not yet based. I hope to finish it over the weekend.
Excellent job, Mark! I like the mix of trousers. The white really pops on these lads.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jonathan!
DeleteVery nice unit Mark - and you can tick off "Green Facings" from your "to do" list!
ReplyDeleteThat was my thought too...since the intention was to build an army around Moore's army, its a pity the 69th (and no other green faced units for that matter) served with that force.
DeleteSuperb, great painting and I do like the subtile differences between the poses, so realistic...
ReplyDeleteThanks Phil. Yes there is lots of variety in the poses.
DeleteGreat job are these Victrix?
ReplyDeleteThanks Mark. No they are Perrys.
DeleteAh not familiar with their Brit stuff, cheers!
DeleteYes the British set differs considerably from the other Perry plastic sets in that they are all in firing line poses with no march attack figures.
DeleteVery nice, and I like the variety of trouser colours. The grey, white and Bowen always mix well together in a British battalion.
ReplyDeleteYes I think I will do the next unit much the same way.
DeleteGreat looking unit,I like the green and the variety in the trouser colour!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
I think there will have to be at least one more of fhese rough and ready units among the three remaining battalions in this collection.
