Monday with a week in work ahead

Which of course may slow things down a bit.

Latest batch of figures is prepared and understated. I'm experimenting with a black undercoat for half of these units and may retry the dot and line technique if I can be disciplined enough.

The first ECW units are painted

Three of them are already on bases but I'm going to wait till more if not most are done before finishing the bases off so I can get a more homogeneous look across both forces.

All four units, three based and the fourth waiting to come off the painting sticks.

Cavalry based to replicate Swedish doctrine under For King and Parliament

Standard foot battalia

Cavalry based to represent Dutch doctrine under FKaP

Monday in lockdown, ECW project starts

So partially inspired by Nige's efforts solo gaming with to the strongest I've decided to crack on with the ECW lead mountain. Prepped one unit of infantry and cavalry for the rightly guided and rebels. Hopefully these should be finished by Sunday.

Managed to finish these.
They were going to be the first cavalry unit of my new Carolingan host, but they seem to noble so I'm going to use them as heroes for to the Strongest. Apart from Charlemagne who will still be the Senior, heroic general.

They are based on half discs to facilitate putting them alongside unit bases and remain in the grid square.
