Four more pro-Carolean Spanish infantry for my new army. These were painted for me by our very own Mad Lemmy. https://grahamsgaming.blogspot.co.uk/2018/02/a-confederate-army-for-war-of-spanish_14.html

fsn, yes I will be twiddling with the flags to make them "wavy"(but probably not like Techno's hair)

Looking great, I concur with having to do both sides... I've turned into a collector/painter as I have trouble finding opponents and have to do both sides...by the time I finish I move onto a new project lol.

Well, everyone needs a hobby!

This time two Dutch battalions, one from Bruhese Regiment and one from Friesheim Regiment. Dutch regiments in Spain consisted of two battalions, but it would be a bit dull to field two identical units, so I've done one from each. http://grahamsgaming.blogspot.co.uk/2018/02/a-confederate-army-for-war-of-spanish_17.html

Now for the start of the mounted contingent, a unit of dragoons (from the excellent League of Augsberg range) and two cavalry units. http://grahamsgaming.blogspot.co.uk/2018/02/a-confederate-army-for-war-of-spanish_21.html
Looking at the dragoons makes me think I really should get some more of these to replace my current French dragoons with these little beauties.

Nicely done but unfortunately Spanish dragoons didn't look like that. See https://www.pinterest.es/pin/522628731744133570/ and http://users.telenet.be/Gercon/cossacks/images/Spanish_18c_dragoon.jpg

I asked here about this (http://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,10619.0.html).

I used the SYB25 SYW British Horse Grenadier figures and modified the hat. This figure has the tall grenadier hat so I used a file to round the top. Then I cut the back off to make the front taller and rounded that off. It was pretty easy to and worked well.

I guess then use you existing figures to replace the French dragoons you mention.

That project is developing very nicely Sunjester.

Very nice indeed

Take care

Nice one Graham

Thank you chaps. 

Hwiccee, thanks for the info. Bugger!    The uniform I'd found from the 1690s had them still wearing floppy hats. I knew that hadn't gone for tricorns, so assumed that they had taken the French style of caps. Oh well, it looks like these must be French dragoons after all! 

Looks like I'll be doing some converting, I wonder if the GNW Russian dragoons would work with a little piece of plasti-card stuck on the front?
