Today is day 7 and I have an element of 10 French line infantry in campaign dress to paint but it's already 3pm and I have not yet had a chance to pick up a paint brush so they probably won't get finished until tomorrow now. I'm going to have a bash through the French infantry this week, not sure if I should mix campaign dress with others in greatcoats (capotes in Spain?), or maybe use the greatcoated figures to represent lower grade troops and campaign dress for the better quality line units. I'll think it over.
Got the basing style down now, they looked too light so added some sepia ink to the non grassed areas and I'm much happier with them. I also painted all the base edges in Vallejo 'Glossy Black' to see how it looked and I must say I like it.
British cavalry completed (!) 4 elements.
British command base done (really enjoyed this one)
French light cavalry completed (3 elements)
Solitary base of Highlanders ( rest will be standard British line)
