Perry Foot Dragoons - Completed

Didn't spend too much time on these guys; I used Miniwax Tudor stain over a basic block paint job. Then gave them a little highlights on their coats and helmets.
The swords and slung reversed and hiked higher up for dismounted movement.
These will join the small mounted detachment that I painted for a fellow gamer here. He'll be back next Friday from his battery recharge in Hawaii - hope he likes them - if not, I'll keep 'em:)! Tomorrow is a game day at Fort Steilacoom - Fix Bayonets! I should use these guys for the game, nah! I have enough figures, but dragoons in Spain would be most appropriate. After that, I will finish up the Crusader Spanish Scutarii - the LBMS transfer came in for them the other day.

    They look sharp in the brown coats with yellow facings.

    Very nice painting!

    Oddly, I have the very same minis (only greener) on mmy painting table. I really like the brown look, though, says Spain to me.

    Thanks, Gents! Yes, the brown is definitely a Peninsular-look. I like dragoons in traditional green coats too, though. Best, Dean

    They came out terrific!

    What shade of paint did you use on the pants and gloves? It looks perfect.

    Thanks again for the nice comments, Gents.

    James: Those were the easiest - Vallejo German Camo Beige for the gloves (hands) & half the group's trousers. Americana Neutral Grey was used for the trousers on the other half of the group. The Miniwax Tudor stain did the rest. Best, Dean

    Great painting Dean. I like the brown coats with yellow facings too. The wood work on the carbines looks really good.
