Mid month progress

As I've been busy this month with trying to find somewhere to live, I've been very slack with the blogging.

I have done some painting though, which includes the first batch of Sword Dancer cavalry for my Very British Civil War force. And here they are:


I used German WW2 forage caps with the peaks cut off to approximate the caps that the real life Sword Dancers wear. Although they all have matching uniforms, their kit is deliberately mismatched - so belts, gloves, blankets etc are all different. The idea is that they've scrounged what they needed wherever they could - including the standard bearer who's sitting on the Union Flag that his flagpole originally had on it.

Next stop, more Normans!
