A little progress, not heaps, but a little. 2 more stands done: one of pirates and one of Red Coats. These are coming out well and are actually quite fun to paint.

I think the colours identify him as a Red Coat, but there are enough differences to make them stand out from the others.](https://i0.wp.com/www.mondayknights.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/redcoat-finished03.jpg?resize=620%2C348&ssl=1)
These are not quite finished, I didn’t put down a final layer of Dull-cote. It’s just the gloss varnish. They will look a fair bit better once they stop being so shiny. Still not 100% happy with how the photos are coming out, I’m struggling to get the focus really tight. I think it’s just that I’m blind, but the lack of light won’t be helping.
