| Lt. Colonel Charles Mawhood Fife and Drum Miniatures |
Here is a picture of the command stand for the British commander at the Battle of Princeton, Lt. Colonel Charles Mawhood (pronounced "Ma-Whooo-D"). One of the books that I read mentioned that his dog accompanied him into battle.
The mounted officer is the Fife and Drum Miniatures Briish mounted officer wearing a round hat. The dog is from one of the Perry Miniatures AWI vignette sets of figures.
I have not done the snow basing for the command stand yet.

Death by gallstone, eh? That's one hell of a way to go after a military career.

but at least he had the love of a good dog

And very fine he looks too.
ReplyDeleteAn excellent figure, not just because of the good doggo. I'm quite intrigued by that structure in the background!
ReplyDeleteThe building is the gun powder building at Colonial Williamsburg. Herb Gundt made this for me along with a model of the Courthouse

ReplyDeleteI'd go for 'ma-wood' myself.
