British Square – but some problems
Towards the middle of the British infantry square I planned to have at least 2 mounted senior officers plus a couple of dragoons.
The two senior officers are now complete, and the number of figures ready to be put into the British Square is slowly increasing!
I had already undercoated the next 10 infantry figures ready for painting. But the undercoat has lifted from 5 of them. The reason for this undercoat coming off in patches is not clear to me. All of those 10 figures were degreased at the same time as the horses and other figures on this page. The only thing the 10 infantry have in common is that I used a new white undercoat bought from a “Pound Shop” (a very cheap shop). Maybe this cheaper undercoat aerosol is not so flexible as the one I normally use. So I am now going to have to remove all the white undercoat and then respray with my nomal grey undercoat that I have been using for many years.
