Very nice. What you say about Cornish regiments wearing white rings some distant bells. I think I've read that somewhere.

I have never painted or gamed this era but these Cornishmen are a tremendous advert for it! I love the color scheme and the quality of the paint job is excellent.

Cornish regiment coat colours? Only ever seen questionable references to red and blue coats, and those references are unattributed. So paint away in what ever colour you fancy. Maybe not Kawasaki green though.

I do like a white coated regiment though, which is odd as I hate Napoleonic Austrians. Think they are just too white.

Thanks gents  :)

I’ve got this Rick Scollins painting in my head... but it was probably Newcastle’s whitecoats... something’s saying Cornwall to me though.

Presumably 'white' during the ECW just means unbleached cloth.

Mostly, it was cheaper than dyed cloth. There were bleaching techniques (mostly involving urine), but why add an extra cost in the production?

More marvelous stuff, Captain.

I am impressed at how many head swaps you do.  Care to share your method?

Great moi capitan. They look a little bit like craftsman in the TYW, a kind of village guard.
