Just an update with Royalist Regiments painted to date, 1 more to go - all on the blog https://valleyboyinnz.wordpress.com/202 ... -infantry/
Here they are
The first 3 regiments are from Empress Miniatures
Allan Apsley's Regiment
Edward Stradling's Regiment
Anthony Thellwell's Regiment
The next is a generic regiment from First Corps Miniatures
The Pike are held rather than grounded and I hope well be OK after being attached with epoxy
Next is Colonel John Talbot's Regiment another from First Corps
Lord Hopton's Regiment
with the 3rd First Corps Regiment being The Duke of York's Regiment
Next another Generic regiment this time a plastic one from Warlord Games
Can't really say I enjoyed painting these and the lack of flags doesn't help
Moving on to the last 2 from Bicorne Miniatures
Charles Gerard's Regiment
The pike are grounded and I wonder if might take rougher handling in the long term
Finally The Kings Lifeguard
My Favourite pose is the Musketeer at order pose
Flags are by Flags of War
I have a set of flags for John Lamplugh's regiment left and enough Bicorne figures undercoated t complete this and I think that will be enough Royalist foot for now though I have painted another Warlord Pikeblock and am trying to motivate myself to paint the associated musketeers

Very fine looking chaps, such a shame they will be thrashed by the Righteous Army of the Lord!
There is no point in being stupid if you don't show it!

Re: Valleyboy's ECW Project
What a wonderfully painted army!!
There are some amazing figure painters on this forum, very jealous of your skills.

Excellent figures and painting, VB. That's another period that always tempted me.
You didn't like painting the plastic figures. Was that because the plastic didn't take the paint well, or because of the design/detail/etc on the figures? If I do succumb to temptation I'd probably go with plastic, so I'd like your thoughts.

If "The System" is the answer, who asked such a bloody stupid question?
