League Of Augsburg - Fighting Talk

Hi guys,



Hi guys, I have just updated my blog:
https://spanishleadpainting.blogspot.co ... ercio.html

Some months ago I started to paint a unit for my Spanish army, suitable either for 1670 or League of Augsburg War, using mainly Front Rank miniatures, you can see the previous post here:

So finally I managed to finish it, a Provincial Tercio, made up of recruits, and ready to fight in Catalonia against the French. Also could they could be used in Flanders, as the uniform was (mostly) off white and red in several Tercios of the Army of Flanders.



In order to give some colour variation, I used 3 different recipes to paint the off white; Artic Grey (Foundry), Rakarth Flesh (Citadel), Stormvermin Fur (Citadel).



I really like the way it looks, with those Front Rank miniatures of their "Monmouth rebels" range intermixed with the more professional look of the regular infantry of their late 17c range.



So here you have the pics of the finished unit:

Oh my! You have really a pretty style to paint those Minis!

So...

Now you have painted ONE Company of the Tercio...19 more to go!

Many thanks!
hahahahaha 19 more... I think the company is the tercio itself I have 7 of these already!

Very nice stuff!

Beautiful work as always. I particularly like the variety of hats / coats / colours that gives this unit a different character.

Well done !

Many thanks guys for the kind comments, Yeah, this time I wanted to introduce at least 3 different versions or shades of the same colour in the uniforms in order to add some variety and realism
