The Eighty Years War
The Ragged Cross
And here they are: my first Spanish soldiers! Yes, except for the ensign, they are the same miniatures as the Dutch ones painted differently. This will often happen in this project.
The colour scheme:
- Shiny metallic helmets and armour
- Red sashes and feathers
- Red and different browns for the clothes. Some black here and there too.
The time of year
The basing materials I ordered a while ago, have arrived. This lets me finish the bases for both the Spanish and the Dutch. The Spanish bases reflect spring: bright green grass, flowers, rim in bright green.
The Dutch bases reflect autumn: mixture of dark green and brown grass, fallen leaves, dark brown rim.
I love the idea of autumn and spring basing. The soldiers and basing look really good.
Thank you! 🙂
