1st Battalion, Regiment of Foot Prince George

I tried my hand at 1/72 foot this week. Starting with a Danish Regiment from the Blenheim OOB.
Grant lists them as having light grey coat and orange cuffs and pants. I took advantage of fairly deep bases to off set the figures and try to give an impression of back rank shooting, front rank ready to fire.



No flag yet. I think I need to order them from Maverick.
Better with blonde hair!

      Thank you James! They are Zvesda and I was pleased to find all usable poses in the box.

    Very good! Are you using any Magic Wash/Dip on these figures, David?

      Yes Peter. It helps me out with faces and folds especially.

    I'm very jealous, David! All my WSS are in various stages of completion. But wonderful to see these splendid figures and I can't wait to fight Blenheim with them!

    Thanks Julian. I hope all those figures your painting aren't driving you mad!
