Canadian Grenadier Guards

Another commission rolls off the painting bench! This time an addition to Pete's growing VSF Canadian army; the Canadian Grenadier Guards.

These fine figures are from Ironclad. Nicely sculpted. Minimal flash. They will support the Mississauga Dragoons and his other infantry that I painted over a year ago. I'm also working on some French Canadian militia for him who will be appearing here soon.

    Are these cast as Canadians, or are they re-purposed British Guards?

    They are re-purposed British Grenadier Guards.

    Thanks Donski! I sweated buckets over that red! Took me about 5 layers before I was happy.
