Another couple of battalions completed:



A few more pictures here again, for anyone interested:

Looking very nice.
Any chance of some closeups?

[Plutarch64]

Thanks Rumacara. A few close-ups is probably a good idea, and I'll be sure to do that with the next regiment I have which is nearing completion.

Looking really good again Plutarch.

And I still haven't finished basing my 3rd and 15th Olivenza battalions.
But close. very close.  Just the flags and flocking to go.

[Plutarch64]

Thanks Gustav. Not far to go with yours then, and I hope you'll post a few pictures when complete.

[gustav]

Certainly will, well as best as I can.

However I doubt mine will be as spiffing as yours as they are more "campaign" styled.
Not sure why, just how I felt they worked.  Perhaps because of the ad hoc supply that affected them.

I usually prefer parade dress.

[Plutarch64]

I know what you mean Gustav, and I feel a little "blinkered" when it comes to painting figures in a campaign style. I believe I am lacking a little in the creative department and, unless the miniature itself has been sculpted that way, about the most I do at present is to throw a couple of replacement non-issue trousers into each unit (in the case of the Portuguese, some brown peasant-cloth attire).

It is something I have to work on, I feel.
