Re: Gardes te Voet

This is a stand of the Garde deVoet that I have. For some reason I prefer the orangey color over the yellow. I painted the hats in different colors as I once read the Gardes had an informal look about them and that seemd like an easy way to convey that appearance. Sorry for the poor photo but best I...

Re: Gardes te Voet

These are some different flags I have used for the Gardes de Voet. These came from the "Wars of Louis Quatorze" blog. I changed some of the interior border line colors to get a slightly different look.

Re: Green Coats

Both of the pictures come form the "Wars of Louis Quatorze" blog. The date they were posted was Jan 31, 2009. Just type in "French Draggons" in the search box in the uppper right of the opening page. It should take you there. I find a lot of useful info on his site. - Bob R

Re: Green Coats

I found this picture of French Dragoons. I think the one in the green uniform is from Regt Firmacon. I am thinking that may be a future dragoon unit that I would like to raise. - Bob R.

Re: Eppinger's Dragoons

I don't have a camera so have to use my cell phone for pictures. Hopefully I will improve that aspect and be able to add some scenery as well. I got my inspiration to do this unit from you Ray ("Don't Throw a One"). I also, (hope its okay) used your flags off of your web site. I actually wish the un...
