I started to work on these 3 chaps, 2 troopers and one officer.
ThebMousquetaire officers did not wear the blue soubrevesté, just red coats with gold lace, red troussers and cavalry boots , the officer' guidon bearer wore the same uniform.

I have lay the base colors for the coat and sounreveste.
Gw mephiston Red (coat) , pants and vest using vallejo gory red, sounreveste using scale 75 Abysal blue.
I realized that the officer had turndown collar, so i had to "shave it" and build up the edges .
I have also added the plumes around the brim of the hat.

Thanks Keith, i really like the Mousquetaires uniform, always admired them.
I guess we all see these chaps as heroes from childhood watching the 3 musketters and reading all of the Dumas heroic adventures of these guards.
Cheers
Hi Daniel
A fine bit of painting there on both the details on the vest and the gold lace
Very much a period feel to these lovely figures ...just amazed at the facial features on them
