You are very kind, thank you.    :-[

I must admit that I have been painting the figures up as a slow project just for the
pleasure of painting with a vague idea of perhaps using the '1644' ruleset.  Thank you
very much for the rules recommendation - I'll download a set and have a read through.

This all started after watching 'Cromwell' and then having the idea of using large bases
to create scenic effects (with musketeers sheltering behind walls as in the film) etc etc.
Soon gave up on that (would have taken too long) but was surprised how much I enjoyed
painting the figures and just carried on.   The artillery bases took a good while to model
and paint but I'm really pleased with the results (particularly with the addition of the
'planking' which was inspired by pics of artillery positions in the Beneath the Lilly Banners
rulebook).

I'm currently working on the final infantry regiment and then its on to the cavalry...

Thanks again,


Phil
