One part of the nostalgia project managed to pass under the Brush of Doom and muster into GHQ before we left for our northern R&R. The third British infantry regiment in the shape of River's Regiment of Foot has taken its place on the tabletop battlefield here in GHQ ~
The figures are once again from Ebor Miniatures, using one of the British regiment deals augmented by six additional figures ordered independently. The flags are from Flags of War and the MDF bases fro Warbases of course.I gave this regiment, like its predecessors, three standards mainly as there were three on the sheet! One quibble with the regiment deals, at least for me, is in inclusion of two drummers. Drummers are second only to horses in my all time painting dislikes!
A poor effort at the regimental emblem on their mitre I'm afraid but that's my best at present! At least I got to position the shouting officer in a different location!
The pointing sergeant, a pose for officers and nco's found in many ranges I'm sure! Kneeling figures currently third after drummers on my list!The completed British elements in the collection to date. In the Lead Pimple awaiting their appointment with the Brush of Doom are a further squadron of Horse (Currently with Phil of course), a battery of field guns, a further infantry regiment, and two command stands. I'd hope to work my way through those before the festivities hove into view.





A fine addition to the blossoming retro project.
