Hi, I'm stuck on not one but two old prize crosswords from The Times and need a breakthrough on both.

Make up paper with energy, employing a writer(10).

M - - - - L - - - -

Religious reformer and rising painter, one often up on a charge(6).

- - - - - R

Any ideas or solutions appreciated.

hussar (charge - horse, i think)

That's it! Thanks, trevor. I thought AR (RA reversed) and was running through names like Knox, Calvin etc but didn't know of Huss.

maquillage

ma quill ag e - make up

Thank you both, AB and trevor. Brilliant. I was mostly on the wrong track with that one.

Hoping that will now give me a run at a few more.
