work bench

Progress this week has not be as I'd hoped, partly due to the fact that I painted the wrong cuff colours on half of Munro's regiment who are now based and waiting for the base to dry before the ground is painted and standards issued.

According to the cloathing book the regiment had red cuffs with yellow lace up until 1748 when it the adopted standard practice of cuffs, turnbacks etc all being the same.

Asa result I didn't get the conversions/new releases finished but maybe this weekend, I also finished off a base of Belgian Napoleonic infantry (20mm Newline design) based for the Blucher rules - quite pleased with the number of figures etc so may progress with this project!!!

I like those horses with the empty saddles. Are those new to the Crann Tara range? I could use a few of those for some vignettes.

Graham,
Im working my way through Duffys book on the Jacobite war, it is very enlightening to read his observations on the raising of the clans.

Jim,
They're for the horseholder I feel they need a little work before release but I will send you some to see what you think.

Robbie,
It's a fascinating period. A lot going on other than just the battles everyone knows. The book itself is an excellent read

Looking very interesting Graham. Love your workbench pictures as it makes me look positively psychotic with my "too many figures on the go" mentality! You are very focussed.
