Completed Ensign, Dragoon Militia, Sir John Gells regt, 1643

[valiant]

Hi Guys,

Well, its been a long time coming, but its finally finished (well, apart from the stonework on the base!)

My conversion of a Miniart Netherlands musketeer, to an ECW subject. It is a companion to my other conversion to Bagots regt, Sergeant at Arms. Both these regiments fought each other regularly across the Staffordshire/Derbyshire border, as well as other major battles of the ECW.

Painted in Humbrol (with Testors matt white) with Metalcote metallics and making use of the new Humbrol weathering inks.

I am planning to bring both conversions to Crewe, Sunday, although at this rate the paint may well be still wet!

Thanks for looking,

Steve
