Thanks d_Guy. I've used a sepia wash in the past on the edges of flags, pretty much anything is an improvement on the stark white of the cut paper.

Missed a few updates, so will try to catch those up before too long...

Pendraken Order
Always good to receive a nice heavy parcel from Pendraken, this one was surprisingly large too, probably because of the MDF bases.



I'll leave it to you to work out whats what, Will always seems to like doing that!

Lots of interesting stuff in that order to add in to your existing stuff. You are working much more consistently  than my leisurely attack on Flodden to Kinsale (still trying to work out which portion to ship off to a Pixie for coloration). I will continue to follow this project with great interest.
Encumbered by Idjits, we pressed on

Thats not likely to last. Played Kings of War in 28mm on Friday, so busy looking at what I have to add options to that army.

Yours do have rather further to travel, Paul.

Continuing with the Empire army, following the mammoth rebasing. I've got a few more units of Flagellents on the go. The first couple of strips I've gone for a grey cassock, so these guys are nearing completion, just doing various shades for hair, of which their is a lot of. They kind of remind me of Phil...



At the very back is a strip of Irregular cuirassiers, who have been kicking around for a while, so got them painted up too.

Been a few weeks since updates, but a good amount of stuff has been happening. And I managed to get some photos taken this afternoon in natural light.

We have played several games of For Parliament and King, and have really enjoyed the games, which has meant that my LoA figures have got back on to the painting desk

Jacobite Horse

I already had 3 stands of Tyrconnel's horse, so added another stand to give two units in FKaP, and painted up 2 more with red coats and yellow facings, and the two officers.

Would those be the rules written by Miller Simon and Brentnall Andrew?  :- :- ;).  Glad you like them!
