John Talbot's Regiment of Foote



This is the third (and last, at least for now) of my new ECW units of Foote. 


Talbot supported the King with his Yellow coat regiment.


Like the others of this group, this regiment wears Montero caps. 


Of course I couldn't resist a flag with dogs on it; in this case, Talbot hounds!
This unit has their "Twelve Apostles" and some other highlights in dark green, well, just because!


I used Delta Ceramcoat "Straw" for the jackets - I think it is just right without being too garrish!



Flag for the unit., once again modified from some internet images.

      Thanks, Phil. One doesn't get to do yellow coated troops that often!

    Very nice Peter- yellow coats are my absolute favourites! Yellow coated regiments often have great flags, too.

      Thank you, Simon. The dogs on the flag were the deciding factor in choosing this particular regiment of yellow coats!

    Great work and your comment about the shade of straw is spot on. It conveys the effect very nicely without looking unrealistic.

      Delta CC Straw is a favorite color of mine, although brighter yellows are needed at times.
