^The Start of Something New

Here is the start of a new illustration project for a book which I cant not really say that must about yet. What I can say it is a book on the English Civil War and a rather important battle and hopefully the money raised from this book will help to raise the profile of this battlefield. Anyway here the start and this is a Musketeer from the King Lifeguard. He is uniformed and equipped in the typical well of someone from the Oxford army, with a rather simple but effective webbing with the bandoleers that normally you would see around the musketeers chest. Tomorrow I hope to have it finished and painted and then on to Rupert's Blews. Anyway here is a picture of him.
