Finished the rebel cavalry

So it transpires that a week in the office puts a bit of a brake on production, at least on the hobby front. It has taken me till today to finish the rebel cavalry for the FK&P introductory scenario of the battle of Montgomery.

I also finished a couple of gallant gentlemen and two colonel command bases and finally varnished three cabins and a watermill.
I have got the remaining rebel infantry set-up ready to undercoat and some more command figures now some additional bases have arrived from Pendraken. So this coming week of lockdown should hopefully see this mini project finished. Then all I need is a gaming surface to set them loose on. Mat ready but still need the large hill and possibly more stream.

Sunday post #4

Well I started the rebels earlier in the week although not a great deal of progress so far just done the horseflesh and buffcoats.

The three musketeers at the front are two gallant gentlemen and half a colonel command stand the other half is in amongst the riders behind.

Finished royalists ahead of schedule

Painting went far quicker than expected due in no small part to the efficiency of painting a larger number of horse at the same time.

Group shot

First and second cavalry regiments

Third and fourth cavalry regiments

The infantry

Lurking at the back of the group shot are the rebels.

Monday starting post and late Sunday finishing post

First up the finished, two pike heavy infantry battalia and three forlorn hopes.

They were set to be ready yesterday but when I came to varnish the second pike heavy battalia I realised that I hadn't done the ground. So that put varnishing back to this morning.

It did let me undercoat the next batch of figures so all in all things are still on track.
Here they are one standard infantry battalia and four Swedish doctrine cavalry units.
