Genetic Conception

[Brig. Brick]

In one way or another, we know of the war between Redcoats and Bluecoats, basically generated by the difference in the color of their shirts. But what if we impose another difference, something only each may have.

the old minifig face doesn´t have pupils, but all the new (even the new redcoats) have it, so, I think that it is a "genetic" mark

the tricky part are the old Redcoats, so I suggest something:

due to the small number of designs that the Armada has, I suggest use the old redcoat uniforms:

that's because the Armada could use a blue/white sail and a redcoat (with a bluecoat pattern)

would you change your troops faces according the aged (design)?

I guess I never really noticed the difference between the eyes. I knew it existed, but never noticed it. I also hadn't thought of putting the old redcoats with the old armada. Unfortunately, I don't think they mesh as well with the new redcoats, so we need to do something with them.

The old redcoats work well for NCO's and other rarer ranks in my case, but I do like the helmet on the redcoats.

I always thought they were the same faction, so the insistence on separating the two never made sense to me. But to each his own...

Where is that blue coat admiral from? I have seen the redcoat, but I don't remember his counterpart.

I see the new redcoats as being the same faction as the Imperial Armada, just set a century later, as both have red coats with blue trim (as well as the leader having a different color coat, whether green of dark blue). That way I get three factions - redcoats, bluecoats and armada.

I manage to ignore the difference between both types of eyes, which is more than I can say about fleshies.

His hat and torso are from Hector Barbossa, as seen in the 4192 Fountain of Youth set, while his head belongs to King Leo, from the Castle 2000 subtheme Knights Kingdom (1).

You mean the Imperial Guards? The Imperial Armada represented the Spanish...
