Pendraken Miniatures - American Militia

Nothing like a bank holiday and a day on the brushes.

After the uniformity of the British these took a little longer to bring to the table, having opted for a mix of colours in both trousers and tunics the switch from one base to another added several hours to the process. But I have to admit having flocked, based and adding in flags they look rather good.

My intention is to focus on the earlier encounters of the war, but I dare say some more regular looking line infantry will of course make their way into the collection. These militia types have standards from those at Bunker Hill.

Not quite ready to get them on the table yet, but the six foot units and a couple of commands will do for the core of the American forces sharpshooters and casualty bases and I should be ready to go.

As an old friend of mine used to say they pass the three foot test and look great on mass.
