ECW Army Project...What have we done

On Monday night my chum Mark came over with his painted ECW army. Whilst painting my Parliamentary force he was busy doing the same with the Royalists. Between us we have painted over 1000 28mm figures since late December 2015 and we are very close to completion.

It only seemed right to put out the vast array of troops.... and it soon became clear that my fifteen foot long table is NOT going to be big enough !

The vast majority of troops on show are all Warlord plastics but we have both augmented our forces with a sprinkling of Bicorne, Redoubt, Perry, Foundry and a few others.

Its a good thing there is an extension planned !

All the forces are mounted on movement trays and it took us no longer than 10 mins to clear away into the boxes we had both bought for the project.

We'll be taking close ups of the troops during our first game...scheduled for May

Come back soon


For more ECW stuff just search ECW for battle reports, terrain builds, cards etc. Thanks for following this project
