Lots of new recruits at Chateau KeepYourPowderDry

Lieutenant General James Wemyss' Regiment of Foot link
Prince Maurice's Firelocks link
Colonel John Pickering's Regiment of Foot link

Pickering's were a guinea pig in my question "I wonder how long it takes.." link – the answer is just under 11 minutes a 'man'. That's prepped, painted, washed, varnished and based.

A taster:

Lots of pictures, inane rambling, regimental histories etc on the blog

Many thanks everyone.
Timing the process was strange – I usually paint a bit here, bit there, so finding out the whole process was 6+ hours was a bit of a shock. But 11 minutes a figure seems reasonable (but is the same thing!)
