Doing some more base coats on James Graham’s horse. Doing a bit of messing with various Flesh contrast paints. Happy just to get to the paint tabling, nice wee bit of familiarity. Having a very peaceful and lovely change in the pace of life.

Getting some base colours down today while everyone else naps. Finding that nice range of scattered projects I primed for this week pitch perfect. Splash a colour on, move to something new and do the same. Perfectly relaxed pacing for a tired me.

… two wings of muskets and now a block of Pikes, we are marching on like the rag tag army I’m building.

Takeaway so far? I have stabbed myself with so many pikes…

Otherwise, I’ll get a better photo tomorrow of the regiment all together.

Accidentally broke my “Rank and a treat” method on the Pike Regiment by blitzing all the Pikes. Which means.. onto treats, the Sergeant and the Ensign.

The Sergeant is one of my favourite miniatures from the set. It’s pitch perfect. Eyepatch, bonnet, slightly more aged face, simple attire, wrap. Its one of the most characterful in the range for me, it’s telling the story of the Irish Brigades. Love it.

Before I’d read anything about the Irish Brigade in the I’d always had (a joking) hatred of Aberdeen (Hibs fan here- shocker)… BUT WHEN I FOUND OUT THEY SHOT THE DRUMMER BOY!?!

Anyway, I’d say this is halfway done? Want to highlight the face, and I’m not sure about the jacket, want it to look frayed, but might want to tidy it a touch more.

Two wings of Irish Musketeers now finished. So now onto the pike block. I got it started with a treat of working on the Captain. Managed to get into halfway into a rank of pikes as well. Enjoying painting historics for change. Utterly enthralled by reading about Montrose and Mac Colla and the Irish Brigades. So a very nice all encompassing project.

First pair of Muskets ready to get based for my Montrose Irish Army. It’s the first couple of I’ve painted. They’re really lovely with a nice and fine but not overwhelming level of detail. Too add, after reading a bit on tartan (auldearn1645.blogspot.com/2020) I’ve took a first crack at it. I’d say I am pretty happy with the first go at it.

Just updated an old post with my rationale for pike lengths (and where to source them)
