[MarquisMini]

I always take a few of these when I have saved enough cash to buy a coffee and didn't know what i was going to do with them.
Brilliant idea and good wood working skill. those lessons at school finally paid off.

I worke don 2 grenadiers who were taken off the battlefield for the re-arrange of it .
I replaced the old 1776 regulation uniform of sky blue collar and aurora lapels for the new 1779 Reg. Of dark green cuff and piping at the lapels.
They are wearimg the tricorne hat with the red pompon mention on the regulation.
Few details to paint and they will be placed as guards for the command tent which i am still trying to figure it out on how to make.

I've placed the flag and hands, painted the flag pole and need to take care of the details on the hands.

Hi Daniel

Now we are really talking with the flag in position .....they certainly must have been difficult to control in winds and of course a prime target in battle

Did you use P3 for the whites ?
