More lovely paintwork there. This look of this period really is quite ravishing. I have quite a few of them myself  :)

I adore the cut of the coats- Louis may have been responsible for half of Europe being ravaged, but he certainly knew his tailoring!

Here's my third regiment- Douglas AKA Hepburn's AKA Dumbarton's AKA the Royal Scots. I'm really pleased with how these came out. They were painted for me by Richard O'Connor. More about them on t'blog https://bigredbat.blogspot.com/2022/01/pontus-pilates-bodyguard.html

Here's another unit for my project, and the first mounted one. These are the Royal Dragoons c. 1685, but I might use them in the 1670s. More on t'blog https://bigredbat.blogspot.com/2022/01/royal-dragoons.html

Thanks chaps. Hope to have some more soon, but am having trouble getting the right flags for the finished regiments.
