My goal in creating Colour Guard Miniature Painting has been to provide the very best quality painting service to collectors and wargamers- nothing less. Send me your command stands, your guard and elite figures and I will return them to you looking like the special troops that they are.
It is a historical phenomena that the better uniformed a soldier is, the higher his Morale will be. For evidence I point to the Napoleonic Grenadier with the tall hats and plumes to make them artificially taller, and the red coloration to make them fiercer. And certainly the polished Armour and bright Heraldry of the Medieval knight was intimidating as well as protective.
And surely what better way to raise the Morale of the few with spectacular uniforms? Does anyone doubt the fortitude of the 95th Rifles, Ellsworth's Zouaves, or the British at Rourke's Drift? No.
In more than 15 years of wargaming and collecting, I have seen the effect a well painted unit can have on the morale of a "player." Many times I have been witness to, or participant in, the cringing and drawn breath of players around a table when the well painted unit hits the table. This is a result of what gamers know to be true...
The better it looks, the better it fights.
It is to this that Colour Guard Miniature Painting is dedicated. Every figure is painted to the very finest quality. No shortcuts, no omissions, only the best possible detail. Whether it is the Knights Templar, the Guard Grenadiers at Waterloo, or the Rangers at Point du Hoc that you have always wanted to field in all their glory. No detail is missed, whether for your tabletop army or your display collection.
If the dedication above sparks you interest, you are at the right place...but don't just take my word for it, examine the Boot Camp and Parade pages and see for yourself.
