From Kent Galpin - 28mm Bloody Miniatures English Civil War Cavalry (40pts)

Afternoon from a very warm summers day in Christchurch New Zealand
I think this is my 5th crack at the challenge, had a ball last year but
I thought need to dial it back a little this year and really enjoy the Challenge 
I hope everyone has a great time and that we all get a good bunch of minis painted in the process, the funny thing is I thought after painting so many cavalry last challenge I might do something different but I did count over 50 cav that I started work on so maybe not.

Well first up I have a wee set of 4 English civil war minis from Bloody Miniatures
They really are a pleasure to paint and hopefully if I get back to them I’ll have a few more that cross my table.














We there we have the first entry 
4 x 28mm Cavalry @10pts if I’m correct 40pts

First, welcome back to the Challenge Kent!

Beautiful brushwork for your opening gambit, wow! I've always liked your clear, clean style and these harseboys don't disappoint. They're all great minis, but I especially like that officer with the broad blue waist sash - really lovely stuff.

These lads will give you 40 points to start your climb up the points ladder. Well done Kent!
