Connaught Rangers

I started my Penisular project basically as an excuse to do Le Marchant brigade at Salamanca. 1000 strong brigade of heavy dragoons. But the perries have been slow and slower with those. But they are finally getting closer to completion, but the damn virus is slowing things down. But I thought I'd continue to work on my project. My first aim is very low, I have a tendency to aim way too high.
So my first aim is to do the first brigade, with the 88th, 71st and 45th foot and 3 companies of the 5/60th. And a division of horse guns with limbers.

I'm sure that by the time I've gotten that far, Perry has released the dragoons.

The 88th foot, was done with Perry plastic and Maverick models flags. A very strange unit this became. I started on it like a year ago, did 2 bases and lost interest, I then did a couple of coats of the jacket and facings on another base several months ago and again lost interest. So this unit has 3 different paint styles. the two older bases use reaper miniature white for the white and a mix of coat d'arms and citadel reds. a 3rd base uses the same mix for the red but now uses andrea white for the white. And two last bases use andrea for both the white and red...

 I personally like the two last bases the best, the command base looks very good and so does the base with the light company on it. 

 And still bad photoshop work for the background.
