Never ending...

Red coats! Come on, my brave lads! 'King George and Old England forever' (yes, I know that's the wrong war, but you get my drift).


 
And the oppo again. Actually, from a wargame figure painter's perspective, the American Revolution has a lot going for it - corking uniforms, rather cool campaign dress, reasonably small numbers required, and very little in the way of (expensive) cavalry.

And more SSMs, this time as British dragoons:



Surely, it can't take much longer...

    1. Yes, I'll have to. It's been a wargaming drought since last winter. So much to do, so little time...
