Next on the painting desk are some Black Tree unmarried skirmishers with firearms.
I'm still having issues with my camera so these are not the greatest of photos.
I had also run out of Agrax Earthshade and used Devlan Mud instead, you can see the difference in the definition on the figures backs. Lesson learnt.
Edit, while looking at my hand written notes I see that the uVe regiment had somewhere between 2000 to 3500 members. So before I get a flood of complaints (if anyones reading this). I thought I'd better point out my own mistake. I may have to change some shields to get a better representation of some of the regiments or build a complete uVe regiment just like the others. I have not found out if the skirmishers and riflemen mentioned in some reports were taken from regiments when needed, or if they were specially raised units for this purpose. The reason I looked at my notes closely is that I am trying to decide what shield design I should use on my riflemen which are just about painted.

Top notch!
ReplyDeleteSuperb work!
ReplyDeleteWhen I come out of this non-painting funk I hope to do some more Zulu as well. Great inspiration for me on this post.
