Having arrived in the post, my Jacobite army is now based. Once the glue has dried they will be ready for priming and painting later in the week.
In the picture, there are lowland regiments on the left, highlanders in the centre, with a few cavalry on the right too. At the front are two gun batteries. The gunners will be added later.
As mentioned in my last post, it was my intention to have figures to replace the wooden blocks provided in the game Jacobite Rising.
I acquired some 6mm figures by Baccus and have painted half of them, giving me eight line battalions, one grenadier and three dragoon squadrons. Here they are - rather impressionist painting!
I hope to paint the remaining eight battalions and four cavalry squadrons, along with some generals by the weekend.
I am expecting a box of Jacobites to turn up soon!
