dispatches from terra incognita

Zafrarian Infantry

Paint has dried on the first Zafrarian infantryman and thus he is ready for service.

Embodying the national colors.

I had returned to Battledress for inspiration. I believe these two fellows may have risen to the top:

An infantryman from Wurttemberg…

… and a grenadier from the Kingdom of Bavaria.

I went for a lighter jacket, a bit horizon blue-ish.

And smart, black patent leather kit with bright gold accents. I painted over the front cross strap (you can see in the picture on top) as I wanted more blue to show. Looking at him now, I think I painted the epaulette on his right shoulder incorrectly. I’ll need to fix that …

    Looking good. I’ll be interested to see how many you paint.
