Thanks to a great deal from a buddy who had some old boxes of foot as well as cavalry, some additions to an ECW Pike & Shotte project are being worked on. So far there are enough foot for two regiments with pike and shotte, and several shotte units as well. I may add some pikemen to the shotte units, or leave them as separate commanded shotte. Wanting to keep this as a quick and fairly simple project, I started with basecoats of spray paint I already had – except for a new can of red.

The flesh, hair, buff coats, armor, leather straps and pouches/bags have been painted over the base colors. I plan to paint some of the pants various other colors for variety.

I hope to start the new year with some Pike & Shotte games. Happy Holidays!
