What an interesting and unusual subject. I have a lot of Copplestone Glory of The Sun (now North Star 1692) and new Front Rank late C17th figures to paint. I might well nick your idea and do a few like this. Where did you find the uniform details?

@ Captain Blood

Afraid the only info about their uniform that is known is that they may have wore grey coats, the rest is pure conjecture.
