This may be a boring question, but the bases of these figures were beautiful!
I have been using GW flock so far, which I thought looked great, but no longer do...
What flock has been used for your bases?

  very nice indeed.  Brings back memories, I did Guilford some time ago, Brits in 28mm and the opposition in 1/72 plastic (way to expensive in 28mm).  Eccentric or what?

Great stuff, goatmajor.
What a pity, that I'll do single base battalions 

BTW. You wrote:

British Legion (using LI figures until we get those Tarleton wearing infantry.......)

BL infantry probably didn't wear tarletons.

23rd foot (without a goat)

Is there any evidence, they had goat in America (I haven't read Mark Urban's book yet) ?
I'd be very pleased to add a goat to my regiment.

You have to have a goat, looks the part  





FAO : *Maciek*

The first mention of the Regimental Goat is in Lt. Frederick MacKenzie's diary for St. David's Day 1775 when the Regiment was quartered in Boston prior to the onset of the American Revolution. The Goat is described as

"...with gilded horns and adorned with ringlets of flowers."

Holy sht !
A goat !!!
Definitelly, I will have one !

"...with gilded horns and adorned with ringlets of flowers."

Sounds like a tough looking mascot...
