Here's the latest off the workbench; the 92nd Gordon Highlanders! Tartan kilts and diced bonnet bands just about sent me cross-eyed. I've also added some pictures of my HaT British light infantry that I'd painted as the 52nd, but after settling on painting this particular brigade, I changed to the 71st Glasgow Highland Light Infantry by adding the diced border to their shakos. One reference I saw seemed to indicate a dark blue shako or a black shako with a red pom-pom on the crown, but I've gone for the standard stovepipe with the diced border.

Can't have Highlanders without a piper!

Colour party. Made a real hash with the King's colour; glued it upside down, then tore it off the staff trying to remove it. Doesn't look too bad in the photo, though!

The officer from HaT's only other British infantry set set, the light infantry, which was pretty much rubbish, except for the officer. He has a head swap with the newer infantry set which was much clearer than the original
Very nice blog, you have done a great job on the 20mm troops, I had to look twice to make sure that they were not 28mm.
