French Indian Wars - The British Infantry

My French Indian war project is now moving forward at a rapid pace.

The project has three phases:

1.       Source and Paint Figures – sourcing complete and around 50% through painting)

2.       Source or scratchbuild log cabins and other suitable structures, plus fences etc – Grand Manner looks promising but I need to save the pennies

3.       Decide whether I need to build a new table with wooded cliffs, gullies, rivers and farmsteads or do I just slap it all down on the table –

Given that the figure painting is most laborious task I figured I would tackle this first

The intention is to paint around 200+ 28mm figures that represent the various protagonists.

These will include:

British Line Infantry (c 30 figures including officers)

French Line Infantry(c 30 figures including officers)

Rogers Rangers (I went a bit mad here and have ended up with 28 of these guys)

Canadian Militia & Trappers (12)

Native Indians (around 60 figures – these can be used for Huron, Mohawks etc)

Civilians, Militia & Provincials – 30 figures

All the figures have been sourced from Perry Miniatures, Galloping Major, and Redoubt
