Almansa 1707 - 2mm Portuguese - Henriques' Brigade

 


My last Portuguese brigade is complete!!!



Henriques' Brigade fought in the centre, 2nd line under the Dutch General Friesham, see the map above for their position.


The 4 units in this brigade are Francis d'Abru Pereria, Mat. Alvarez Galle, Felix Machado and Don Henric Henriques'.


There is no info on the uniforms of the Portuguese, but its most probable that they wore those same boring grey uniforms like the Dutch, Portuguese and the French. I've chosen to give Henriques' the old blue unifom, which has faded to a lighter shade of blue, just for a little colour to be totally honest.

Only 3 Brigades to go!

  3. Those look absolutely incredible, Ray. I don't know how you paint such tiny details. Marvellous looking unit - the table must look awesome with all these units on it.

    1. A nice pair of magnifying glasses helps Simon. Without them I'd be in trouble.

  8. Another step nearer completion, I agree with the blue regiment, certainly breaks up the sea of grey, great work as always.

  12. Ray.Have just seen this, superb 2mm kit which is one of my newest scales. How are you basing cavalry? are the infantry blocks the 3 rank 24 figure 11mm frontage? And what rules do you use?
