A Fixture
I have a bunch of troopers of the Soissonois regiment still waiting to be finished but as usual with me, i want to start painting another regiment of the ones that was present at Yorktown, this time is the Gatinais or Gatinois like some sources like to spell.
the facings for this regiment are Violet or purple ( depends on who is describing the uniform) and the traditional white coat.
I just started to prime and applyed the strong shade on the first batch of troopers, i took some pictures with the figures color/primed in skeleton bone and some troopers already wore dipped in the quickshade, that will give you an idea on how is the color and creases accentuated with that method.
Cheers
note: The troopers have a horizontal pockets, the new regs. for this regiment with white buttons specify vertical pockes, i decided to leave the horizontal pockets since it will be a lot of work to shave them and many regiments wore the old coat and adapted the facng colors and transferred the buttons, so it could be right having the horizontal pockets too.
