Hi everyone. Does anyone have a link to some painting guides for the ECW. I'm building a small force for Pikeman's Lament. |

See the very helpful guides to clothing and flags on the Baccus 6mm site: link The information is equally valid for larger figures. |

Nice link Arthur1815 Here's some more info but it's not as good as Arthur1815's link when it comes to explanations: link I have several hundred ECW figures from Warlord Games to assembly and paint so I too am interested in any and all painting guides. |

I got interested in the ECW because I started to read Michael Arnold's civil war novels; The Civil War Chronicles, very good story lines and lots of action. So when Pikeman's Lament came out I decided I good get away with painting a company or two and not have to field great armies. |

Here are some very useful notes from the website of Prince Maurice's Dragoons, a re-enactment unit:- princemauricesregiment.org.u … diers.html princemauricesregiment.org.u … -1643.html I also have some research (not mine, but collated from various sources not otherwise found in one place) on the King's Oxford army in 1643-44, and would be happy to put it up on here if required. |

Quite nice one here link includes Covenanters and even a little on the Irish. And as ever – all are welcome to browse and edit the BCW Regimental Wiki here wiki.bcw-project.org/start :-) |

IrishMarine: I saw your mention of Michael Arnold on another thread. Unfortunately none of the libraries in my area have any of his books. I'd really prefer to read one before I buy the series. |

I buy the used copies on amazon so far they've been great. |
