Composed of 24 Front Rank Highlanders from their Jacobite line, they will be uniformed in a mid-smokey blue with buff facings. The kilts are a representation of the Campbell tartan of blue and green. This picture shows the first company carrying the inhaber's color, a white St. Andrew's cross saltire on a blue field. In the background is the second company. It may take a little longer to finish them (the tartans are time consuming!), especially since our group's theme for 2009 is Colonial Adventuring and I will be adding to my Colonial armies, starting with some Beja tribesmen (AKA Fuzzy-Wuzzies) for a mini-campaign in the Sudan.

And very promising they look!
Now -I know it's heresy, but... what about combining your 2 currents projects in a Lace Wars mini-campaign in the Sudan? Not something of the scale of the FIW or the British-French struggle over India, but a little affair like the 18th C. French expeditions to Madagascar...
Cheers,

Jean-Louis,
That might be a distinct possibility! We have decided that Colonial Adventuring can mean just about anything related to colonialism at just about any time - from Romans versus Britons to Imperial Marines versus little green men.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Jim
