Whilst I am not able to do much in the way of painting I can do a little in the back ground and as the Spanish 40mm in particular are part painted it makes sense to try finish a few of these off.
Five of these are the part painted Tony Runkee figures and the other two were bought painted off ebay that I have repainted.
The building is another of the lovely Old Glory resin buildings with courtyard added by my good friend Chris Charlton.
For these the guys the highlights all needed doing, in particular the white and also the last layers of flesh and metal work. Still though a quick turnaround with these lovely figures.
With these two I essentially used the painting already there as a base coat applied washes and revisited just about everything, still though it speeded the process up, I generally dont leave 5 o'clock shadow on figures but it worked with these two based on what had already been done so I decided to leave it.
The Foundry armed Monks are lovely but I am not sure I can use all three of this firing figure. Lets see once they are all done.
These last few are a different camera, on this occasion the old camera seems to be better, a lot depends on the light. The Sergeant gives me 4 red faced Spanish.
These guys take me to 13 finished for the Zaragossa regiment so not far off half way.
You get a feel here for how much bigger the officer is. I do like this NCO with his large moustaches.
A real mix of trouser and shako cover colours, there will be a theme through the unit though of blue and brown trousers with a yellow seem tying the basing together.
Thanks for stopping by.
Lovely work as always 👍

I shall be working on mainly 40mm for the next few weeks at least with a plan to create a Spanish brigade and a decent number of the 3d printed Hessians for a game early next year.
