Very nice.
Late unit, hence no musket rests?

Yes Martin, raised during the Commonwealth. Fought with Cromwell in the Preston campaign, then joined Lambert besieging Pontefract. Then marches north, possibly at Dunbar, returned south for Worcester before returning to Scotland as a garrison regiment. |

A sharp looking unit. I like how the leather straps and pouches stand out against the darker clothing; good contrast. Do you remember what color you used for those bits? Jeff |

Awesome work for a unit with deep history. Didn't know about the lack of rests and learn something every day. |

Thanks Jeff. It was a buff. That was a quick reply! I'll take a look at my Foundry 7 Buff Leather A-B-C colors first. Thanks for the help! Jeff |
