Muskets and Tomahawks Progress

 


As I paint I’m listening to people playing Muskets and Tomahawks and Shako and Bayonets. I found I’m absorbing quite a lot. Anyhow, to the progress.

 

British Regulars, HM 44th. Gandamak, if memory serves. Certainly Monongahela. They earned their wages. These are Blue Moon and are depicted skirmishing.  I’m going to add the 60th Royal Americans. We will see them soon.


The Pennsylvania Provincials with their green coats. Blue Moon again.


The New Jersey Provincials ditto. I have drummers to add for these and the 44th.

Rogers Rangers at the top of the page. The first of three Ranger Companies. Butler’s and Gorhams to follow. I think Gorham’s should wear black coats and blue bonnets. An abiding memory. I must check.

More to come.

    1. Thanks Donnie. A couple of nice flags too, for the Regulars.

  2. These look great OB - apologies for the late commenting, I think I must have missed a few posts thanks to the current vagaries of Blogger delaying them being viewable
