Something that was missing in my first test of my FIW Rules a few weeks back, were some Generals, so over the weekend I painted up these seven Essex Miniatures Seven Years Wars figures. I've started with the English and will paint up some French soon. The figures have various cuff colours, some will represent Generals for particular units, while some of the blue cuffed will be the CnC and Aide de Camp's.
Have a great weekend peeps!!!

Looks good Ray.. like the coloring on the horses..
ReplyDeleteCheers!!!
DeleteA bunch of dapper Gentlemen indeed. This a very nice Essex range
ReplyDeleteI should really buy shares in Essex, I'd hate to workout how much I've spent on their figures over the years!!

ReplyDeleteVery nice miniatures!
Definitely not much use on them thare horses!!! Get off and walk!!
DeleteNicely done Ray. They'll look fine on the table I presume. I really love this "Gentlemen look" of the officers of that period. They bring Tom Wilkinson to my mind as he portrayed Cornwallis in Emmerich's "The Patriot" movie...
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely!
DeleteNice looking figures, no need to make that much effort with the French ;-)
ReplyDeleteThat's good output for a weekend
Ian
Very nice Ray, really like the details.
ReplyDeleteVery very nice Ray. Have a good weekend too.
ReplyDeleteIt'll be a great weekend because I'm not working with you at the moment!
ReplyDeleteYeh! same here you git!!
DeleteGreat job on those, as usual.
ReplyDeleteLooking great. Nice colours. Job well done.
ReplyDeleteYou do a brilliant job of painting things at this scale Ray. Have a good weekend. I'm still waiting for the phone to ring, wish me luck.
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts are with you and yours!!!
DeleteI love these Ray, possibly my favourite yet! Perhaps it is because of my follicle challenged bonce that I'm drawn towards those lovely powdery wigs! :D
ReplyDeleteI'm not saying anything...............
DeleteGreat work. Nice collection of generals.
ReplyDeleteNicely done Generals and their trusty steeds.
ReplyDeleteThey are really elegant! A very nice work!
ReplyDeleteI just boogie boogied Fran - and now I'm over here, boogie booging you.
ReplyDeleteCheers and Happy Painting.
Nice figures. Lovely fine detail on the cuffs
ReplyDeleteIcing on the cake.
ReplyDeletegood job there Ray.. like em
ReplyDeleteVery nicely done Ray. We Brits certainly know how to dress as gentlemen before giving the Frenchies a good thrashing!
ReplyDeleteHa ha!!!
DeleteFine group of commanders. Dean
ReplyDeleteDude mounted. These are awesome, it had to be a little more difficult?
ReplyDeletenice generals. are they melodramatic or practical ones?
ReplyDeleteA bit of both really!!
DeleteA fine collection of gentlemen
ReplyDeleteRay they look great and it is good to see the East Essex there :)
ReplyDeleteNice work. You certainly seemed to have solved the generals problem en masse. They look suitably dim and inbred for British generals of the period.
ReplyDeleteA great painting work, Ray. They are full of personality.
ReplyDeletefine looking generals!
ReplyDeleteSo you painted some bullet free figures. "Where would war go to, when we start shooting commanders".
ReplyDeleteExcellent painted figures Ray!
