They're all much of a muchness TBH.

And here, penultimately, is the second batch of Sir Hardress Waller's yellowcoats... Mainly Renegade with a few Bicorne figures in there.

These are all odds and sods from various eBay lots. I have titivated them here and there with extra feather plumes, sashes etc. from Green Stuff, and remodelled the hat of the standard bearer completely. Just for a bit of variety, you know :)









And here brigaded with the first batch of yellowcoats...



The pike unit...



The musketeers...





The dangerously revealing close ups...  lol





Et sur le table... The now obligatory scenic shot  :D







Only the Marquess of Boscastle's whitecoat musketeers left to go!  ;D

Yellowcoats! Hi-de-Hi!

Did Peggy ever achieve her dream of becoming one?



Hehe, ignore me. Super-lovely stuff there, Richard. Anything else from you just wouldn't be right.

They look really great, especially in such a very English environment  8)

You are getting very good at this little bits of green stuff work, it won't be long until you start producing whole figures

Perfect paintjob! And we all know how difficult it is to achieve a good yellow... But here, shading is perfect also!
As for the photo-staged pictures, they are real eye candies! Cheers!

Very nice. I particularly like the way you've painted some of the figures as older men - with grey in their hair and facial hair.

Thanks chaps :)

Thanks Colin. Funny you should say that. Give it time...  ;)

Certainly. Once I've finished the last unit of whitecoats, I'll set up and shoot the whole blimmin' lot. (That will be a lot of pictures lol)

Thanks Steve  :)

I have actually found a couple more figures I need to paint as well as the last unit of whitecoats, so the final full monty view of the whole lot will still be a little while coming  ::)
