Ok...two things
1) I discovered that my assumption about leaving the Denison smocks on my Brit Airlanding guys to last is a BAD idea. Let me say that again... BAD idea. So lets forget I ever said that. Also, I am waiting on some mini's to arrive to complete the company, sooooo...
2) Back in November of '08 I purchased some 15mm AWI (American War of Independence) mini's. I bought some British Legion (Tarleton) Light Dragoons and Infantry and some Colonial 3rd Light Dragoons. I am going to play a game of PAL (Patriots and Loyalists) and was reminded of them. I have decided to take a break from WWII and take a trip in Mr. Peabody's wayback machine some 230 years in the past.
I did one of my painting guides on these guys, but basically:
3rd Continental Light Dragoons; Col. George Baylor's Dragoons; 3rd Legionary Corps, 1781
- Coat - white, white buttons
- Facings - med. blue
- Waistcoat - white
- Breaches - buff
- Headgear - black cap, med. blue turban,white feather
- Coat - green, brass buttons
- Facings - black buffs 7 collar, trimed with white lace.
- Breaches - buff
- Headgear - Black Tarleton helmet, green turban, and green plume on the left side.
These guys are very colorful and I think they will be a blast to paint!
Tim, they call him...
