Martha was just 20 when the Indian Rebellion of 1857 broke out in Mureet. She managed to escape, but many hundreds of thousands died.
M is for Martha and the Mutiny, one woman’s story in British India, with memories from my grandaunt Flora.

Fascinating insight into other, lesser known, events that challenged British rule in India.

"We cannot allow this. A woman receiving the Victoria Cross!!! Do you know how this would look?" Sir John Godwinson said in a fit.
"But she did protect her students and defended the school from the mutineers during the siege Sir John..."

A few more finished to add to the rabble, which now number 48. Alongside 40 mutinous sepoys, half a dozen rocketeers, a couple of guns, the Prince & his bodyguard, and 10 native lancers, this pretty much makes up the native troops (plus baggage train) #IndianMutiny #CompanyRule
Final stage of white: Val. Gloss White highlights. Mane & tail: 2 x GW Skeleton Horde contrast paint, followed by 50/50 Val. Sepia Shade / GW Contrast Medium Wash. The rest of the detailing & kit will be as per the other horses (see yesterday’s posts) #IndianMutiny #Company Rule
I hate painting white! First stage: White Primer, GW Nuln Oil Wash to all, then picking out the major muscles with Val. Off White #IndianMutiny #CompanyRule
Kit finished: Almost there, just need to add some socks and flashes to give the horse some character (maybe a mane & tail highlight too!) #IndianMutiny #CompanyRule
…..and the final stage for the bodies, a wash to pull together and smooth the transitions. Manes & tails after I walk the hound (that’s not a euphemism!) #IndianMutiny #CompanyRule
First highlights on the Irregular Cavalry, which I’ve pretty much decided I’ll paint as Gardener’s Horse (2nd Lancers) #IndianMutiny #CompanyRule
Stage 2: Base colours done using GW Contrast paints. Note, the lighter shades needed 2 coats to lessen patches on the flatter flanks & neck #IndianMutiny #CompanyRule
Going to make a start on my next batch of irregular horse this afternoon and found this excellent tutorial by @RushtheWash1 I’ll post a few pics as progress is made: https://youtu.be/9TmgE-EHxlA?si=I0_3ap-7JZ9iwKHS #IndianMutiny #CompanyRule
