Due to other matters arising I have only managed to flock two of the rabble bases (no starwars jokes please  ) so far, but should get the rest done over Easter. The stuff for some generic ECW (and later period) camps has also arrived (only 5 1/2 days after leaving Middlesbourgh!!  ) so started by washing all the resin tents. The metal bell tents (ZC 11) are quite weighty but are compatible with the resin ones.

Going to base them in various multiples so as to give a slightly more irregular look, as they would not be pitched in perfect lines like a later C18-20 regular military encampment.

Blimey I still haven't flocked the rest of the rabble bases......now got lots of Irish horse to do as well!

I did finish making up the camp bases, but too windy to spray primer on them today......going to paint all the tents on the base rather than paint first then base them all. Tomorrow looks a better day for it.
