Robbie's Regiments!

In a moment of complete madness,probably brought about by RUM, I said that I had a couple of ECW  Garrison Regiments,that Robbie Roddis could have for nothing!!!!-Because of this vile virus,I don't know when he can pick them up,but I thought I would post a few photographs of the said regiments,so that he could at least see what they are like...........................

Top-Royalists,bottom Parliamentarians-each regiment is 24 figures strong,and will,I'm sure need to be re-painted!!

Royalist pikes(don't tell him your name Pike!) front and back views.

Parliamentarian pikes(don't tell...........!.) front and back views.

Muskets and drummers.

Officers-quite a bit bigger than the rank and file!!
Hope you ,eventually, enjoy them Robbie.

    Very generous. I like these paint jobs, but I'm sure Robbie will do them proud as he always does.

      Hello Mike,I've got to "grudgingly" say that he is a good painter,and will do them proud!

    Splendid figures ready to march away to a new front. I particularly like the officer in the last photo.

    They look wonderful although when I saw the title of the post I was expecting something in bright pink. Ive discovered that Im a dab hand at baking cakes. Our lass reckons its all in the wrist action, I will have to bake you a cake as a reciprocal gift.

      Brian,as you know,my generosity is only over-shadowed by my good looks!
      I now feel as though I have lost all "street Cred" by one act of kindness to a fellow man(that's Robbie I'm talking about.)
