Very nice.
Hopton is certainly one of the most famous.

One of my favorite Royalists very nicely done. God save the King!

Interestingly enough I did the same thing with my bare headed commanders. Hive mind?? Lol

Thanks Shagnasty.
Takeda – could be! Or it could have something to do with a dearth of 15mm commanders currently available – other than Cromwell, Fairfax, Rupert and Charles they are pretty thin on the ground. Lots of generic bareheaded command.

I've seen some work in progress shots from Steel Fist of a named general (a Royalist, forget who, can't find the picture either now) which looked remarkably like his portrait. So maybe we're in for some goodies in the coming year? – edit: it's listed in their kickstarter campaign updates. Hopton looks really good, there's also a Rochester too (looks pretty generic though). Seem to be selling them as a pack with a lifeguard. If that's the case I probably won't be buying. Don't really need any more rank and file figures (madness I know), I'm just after extras and 'one of' figures now
