Those are really stunning Ry, really nice work. Nik is spot on about the straps on the packs, i split them in half when painting, bottom half white and top gold for a buckle, i dont know if it,s technically correct but it looks good to me and at a distance looks nice and clean/crisp.  Well done on the colored guys, i painted some zulus a couple of years ago and thought they would be easy and quick but they were actually the hardest figures iv,e ever painted, getting the colors right and a good highlight i found very difficult and that was on 6mm so 10s is even harder. A good idea on the grass also, something i dont do or have never thought about so will give that a try, thanks Nik.
I hope you dont mind me putting this pic on as i find it easier to show what i mean than explain, looking forward to seeing more,

Nah. 25mm figures aren't good enough to be passed off as a Clib sculpt

Thanks for the kind remarks  :)

I'm planning on a paint conversion of some AWI french into a spanish colonial militia next, some lively colours.

Cheers
