1st Foot Guards

 

For this unit I've gone for my usual 7YW regiment organisation of 3 4 figure elements of musketeers but have also painted up an element of grenadiers.

This gives me the option of 'normal' regiment...

...And gives me an element that can be used as part of a detached grenadier force...

The officer has gold lace and tricorne trim plus gold buckles on his shoes.

The drummer is based on illustration 3 from the Blandford Encyclopaedia in colour 'Infantry Uniforms',  - lots of these available for sale online

Meanwhile the grenadier is based on plate 2... though note I've painted my unit in campaign dress, white gaiters replaced by black gaiters.
