Finished another commander model, William of Orange or a proxy for another General. 

One more to go and then 12 cavalry!

As always thanks for looking.

King Williams War in Ireland: Another Brigade commander done

 The project continues, and I still have steam. One more brigade commander done, two overall commanders and twelve cavalry to go! Then I will be off the leash to paint whatever I want to add to the period. So far this is a good start, and I have not lost interest nor regret putting in the time to do so.

Here are a few snaps of a general yet to be named.

As always thanks for looking.

King Williams War in Ireland: Danish Funen Regiment and the Comte Dutch Davo

 Well I finished the final infantry battalion for the Williamite side, the Danish Funen regiment. 

I also painted up a command figure. I really liked painting this figure and I had no idea what was really in his right hand until I started putting paint on the figure, the spyglass is so cool. What a nice sculpt. 

Since I'll be using the rules Donnybrook for my upcoming convention game, I'm going with the narrative flow and naming him Comte Dutch Davo. There is something pretty cool in having a figure represent you on the field of battle!

As always thanks for looking.

King Williams War in Ireland: King James II Life Guard

 So I had to switch it up right in the middle of painting my last needed foot battalion for the scenario I want to run. I just needed a break, so I painted up the first of four regiments of Cavalry for opposing force. 

I normally just glue the riders on the horses and paint them because of my process of mounting them on paint holders. My normal is painting pre gun powder cavalry and there isn't as much fluff. It was more difficult getting in the nooks and crannies, plus I primed them in the only spray can I had at the moment, white. So there's that as well. 

In the end I was still happy with how they turned out. But next time I will either get a can of black prime back in stock, or paint the riders separately.

So here is King James Life Guard.

As always thanks for looking.
