Well, life has got in the way of the hobby, I have base coated the next lot of Kirke's Lambs but thought I would ease myself back into paint with a rebel officer

Very nice work.

I'm looking forward to seeing more of these.

A two week gap is not so bad! My Williamite project has been stalled since late last year. But seeing your figures does make me want to get them back on the painting table. Even though I sprayed some lizardmen at the weekend. Too many projects, not enough time.

First unit of musketeers finished, after a bit of research,Kirke's Lambs should be armed with flintlock muskets not matchlock, but I'm not changing now, only the Dumbarton's had matchlocks

I do love these big chunky Front Rank late C17th figures, and your paintwork maes them look very smart indeed  8)

Whatever rules you settle on, here is a mini-campaign of the rebellion http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/mcnelly/vb/campaigns/Monmouth_1685.htm
designed for Volley & Bayonet rules but easily converted to other rule systems.
And the glorious general led the advance
With a glorious swish of his sword and his lance
And a glorious clank of his tin-plated pants. - Dr. Seuss

I like your figures!

Is there a picture of the campaign map being used?
