The second squadron are finished, apart from basing that is, and in keeping with the theme they represent the second company - Anglais.
Recognisable by their violet sash this is the only difference to the first squadron. I decided against trying to do the multitude of lacing styles on cuffs and shabraques that also distinguished the various companies.
For those who like to know the violet was Anitas Craft paint over a basecoat of GW Fortress Grey.

The violet is very effective. (I speak with feeling having this morning tried to get the same effect on a Carlist priest - and failed)
I have liked the look of these figures but I suspect that they will look their best on the table from about 6' away. It is a funny thing but in normal use they may well look better than the more detailed modern figures.
That's a good idea to distinguish different companies by the sash.
That looks nice Paul.
