Delivery of my
order from Legio Heroic took me by surprise as this was expected Saturday and
not Thursday afternoon. As you can see, I promptly cleaned and based the
mounted and skirmisher figures leaving the infantry for next week.
With an undercoat
given last night I started painting horses, hats and weapons today. Saturday
the uniforms will be painted.
From 1670
onward, armies were now adopting standard colour for uniforms; iron grey or
buff coloured, blue, red becoming the majority choice. The mounted figures, all
cuirassiers will have uniforms in that colour range.
The small unit
of Hussars (LH) will require a bit of research. I do know red seemed a popular
colour, so I may paint these in two different shades.
Cheers,
