These two command stands complete the ECW project – at least for the near term. The King Charles I figures is from Warlord with a swapped horse from Perry. The rest of the figures are from a pack each of Perry ECW foot and mounted command.

As mentioned in previous posts, both of these makes work well together. In my opinion, I rather like Warlord a bit over Perry for ECW, particularly as Warlord’s range is quite extensive.

The flags are from the Warlord Games Battalia set with hammered tipped brass rods for staffs.

The Royalists‘ red sashes were highlighted with the red mixed with a little bit of white. I chose not to highlight with yellow added as it might look too much like the Parliamentarians‘ orange/tawny sashes.

The leather coats were painted with Vallejo Dark Sand mixed with a bit of yellow and white. All of the figures were block painted and then given a Minwax Tudor Satin stain. Highlights added afterwards.

This has been a really nice project and my first into the period. I found the painting quite enjoyable and took to block painting and staining very well. I hope to take a „group“ photo of the figures the next sunny day – not very common this time of year here in the Pacific NW. Thank you all for your visits and nice comments and wishing you all the best during the holidays!
